 raitobezarius | Like, expectations, etc. | 20:56:58 |
| raitobezarius | Nonetheless, I don't honestly believe it will make go away the fundamental problem you are hinting at on the heavy reliance on GitHub as a contribution platform | 20:57:23 |
| raitobezarius | There's no RFC on that because it was performed before the RFC process | 20:57:32 |
| raitobezarius | And everyone has kinda their interpretation of the things | 20:57:39 |
| raitobezarius | To make it short, here's mine, we are stuck with GitHub, people tried to go on Codeberg and we made it crash, GitHub server is not performant enough for our own usecases, alternatives like Gerrit are probably too user-unfriendly and would create other sorts of problems, because of that and how unclear the timeline of the existence of a high performance Git server with user friendly stuff, is. I prefer to declare that I want to prioritize the comfort of everyone dealing daily with nixpkgs in GitHub and heavily depending on them does not exclude backupping everything, this is what I have urged colleagues to do like in https://discourse.nixos.org/t/data-dump-of-all-nixpkgs-pull-requests/34457 and what I wish we would continue to do by mirroring the issues, PRs, comments, users, etc. in another silo to preserve our history and make export / migration easy in the potential future we can ditch GitHub. | 21:00:01 |
| raitobezarius | Now, if it's impossible to record the GitHub handle information of someone inside the maintainer-list.nix because of control concerns over the data stored in the visible part of the Git repository (the git objects part being invisible and containing information about the handle of that someone) and the reason invoked for that is GDPR and what not and if, we, as a community cannot come to a conclusion on this, which seems to me, a trivial question in the context (but I do understand why someone can be opposed to it). I will spare myself the mixed and complicated feelings I have regarding this whole situation and will move on to build stuff and ignore folks that didn't record enough data like OfBorg does. Whether this will creates further issues is left to the future who will tell us if it works in practice or not. | 21:02:46 |

 infinisil | I don't feel great discussing this here because not everybody can write messages here.. | 21:04:34 |
| raitobezarius | Right... | 21:04:42 |
| raitobezarius | I forgot about that after writing all those messages | 21:04:49 |
| raitobezarius | Searching for my rooms I found https://matrix.to/#/#platform-governance:nixos.org | 21:05:44 |

Apologies for the noise here don’t worry, it’s all good. | 21:07:01 |
| hexchen | important topic with an unclear forum, not exactly a far stretch to talk about it in here | 21:07:27 |
 fricklerhandwerk | Could be a task for the all-teams meeting preparation to collect stances on the problem and then in the meeting draft a joint statement | 22:14:50 |
