infinisil | piegames: Thanks a lot! I'm watching the thread :) | 16:33:07 |
@piegames:matrix.org | Good :) Feel free to add your own experiences to this | 16:33:32 |
@piegames:matrix.org | While writing it a lot of the raised questions have been kind of resolved, but at this point I don't want answers, I want them answered by the RFC process itself. | 16:35:21 |
raitobezarius | In reply to @infinisil:matrix.org How do you mean that? I believe the change will be inevitably controversial because we do not have the technical means to enforce this in the repository and I imagine that RFC can be just about "formalizing something".
Nevertheless, I think the core idea is very useful to bring forward certain subjects on security, committers, etc, though, so that's what I mean as interesting dynamics, whatever happens out of it, I can only think / hope it will be good.

@linus:schreibt.jetzt | In reply to @infinisil:matrix.org Linux Hackerman: As part of the steering committee, can you announce FCP on Discourse? sorry I didn't get around to this before the meeting, had some issues with my laptop dying... anyway, we'll look at getting the category opened up so that anyone can post announcements there, we think it makes more sense for the shepherd team to do it than us given our meeting cadence and the shepherd team's greater familiarity with the content | 13:21:12 |

infinisil | Robert Hensing (roberth): Could you lead the NAT meeting on 27 June? I'll be on vacation then | 14:17:58 |
Robert Hensing (roberth) | infinisil sgtm 👍 | 15:02:27 |
infinisil | Robert Hensing (roberth): Thanks! https://github.com/nixpkgs-architecture/.github/blob/master/hosting.md should explain everything. Can you go through the one-time setup there? | 15:34:39 |

@piegames:matrix.org | So, what do we do with RFC 140? | 16:17:04 |
@piegames:matrix.org | Also infinisil if you want to update the alternatives section with the new ideas and arguments that came up during FCP (mainly that discussion thread with QuantenZitrone), now would be a good time | 16:18:19 |
infinisil | piegames: Yeah I'll do it this evening | 16:19:10 |
infinisil | piegames: So, the rfc process doesn't state who decides over whether the FCP needs to be cancelled:
In most cases, the FCP period is quiet, and the RFC is either merged or closed. However, sometimes substantial new arguments or ideas are raised, the FCP is canceled, and the RFC goes back into development mode.
| 17:11:45 |
hexa | I would expect the shepherd team to acknowledge that | 17:12:21 |
infinisil | I think it should definitely be the shepherd team, as the steering committee shouldn't be involved in deciding RFCs | 17:12:24 |
hexa | also probably not a good time to mention the issue of how badly legacyPackages was named? | 17:14:11 |
hexa | naming things is bloody hard 😄 | 17:14:38 |
infinisil | hexa: Is this rhetorical? Because that was just mentioned! See https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/140#issuecomment-1584882324 | 17:15:01 |
hexa | uh, yes, it was rhetorical | 17:15:18 |
