garbas Bryan Honof IdaBzo For this year's Summer of Nix we want to try yet another new thing: The mob facilitated by Shahar "Dawn" Or (mightyiam) proposed streaming their sessions to give an impression of what they're doing - we'll flip the classroom for the public lectures this year. We'd need some help from the marketing team for that:

• Please make an announcement for the first live stream on Thursday 2024-06-06 12:00-13:00 UTC

  I'll run the pilot show one time, for organisational reasons but also to make a visible hand-over. If it goes well, the mob should take over.

• In the next 7 days, please give Shahar "Dawn" Or (mightyiam) access to StreamYard so the group can set up everything as they need. If other mobs want to do the same, we may need more permissions handed out. Alternatively we could create another account and StreamYard instance, which is visibly linked to the NixOS Foundation, but I'd need help for that.

• In the next 7 days, please give me access to at least the YouTube account where I can edit the playlists and details.

  Last year it was a bit unfortunate that while I could schedule streams, I could not edit any of the metadata and thumbnails after the fact. I'd catch up with that, and help the mobs polishing up the presentation.

Could you make that happen? Then I'll announce it on Discourse and will also propagate it through the NGI0 network.

Who is the "I" here?

I am very thankful for this opportunity to learn about and participate in the release process. It has been an awesome experience to work with everyone on this release, and I want to say thank you to everyone in this community that built NixOS and helped made this release better.
