raitobezarius | Yes | 16:27:29 |
raitobezarius | Two items left: | 16:27:34 |
raitobezarius | (1) fixup the logo, it's somewhere in a PR on artwork | 16:27:45 |
raitobezarius | (2) fixup the numbers | 16:27:50 |
raitobezarius | (2) needs me to freeze completely the branch but I can already send the numbers that surely won't change | 16:28:07 |
Guillaume Desforges | I was about to say numbers look the same as previous release :D | 16:28:11 |
raitobezarius | @ links, will check when I'm in front of computer again | 16:28:22 |
Guillaume Desforges |
We consider password hashing methods weak, if the libxcrypt project did not flag them strong
do you need a comma there?
| 16:29:02 |
Guillaume Desforges | oh wait I can review the PR 🤦♂️ | 16:29:36 |
hexa | I also think the default linux kernel is not very interesting for the blog post 😄 | 16:29:48 |
Guillaume Desforges | Not for me to judge, but I think it is worth mentioning | 16:30:28 |
Guillaume Desforges | but let's use the PR to talk about these :) sorry here for the noise | 16:30:47 |
Guillaume Desforges | raitobezarius hexa done, thanks for your work 🙏 | 16:36:09 |
raitobezarius | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network I also think the default linux kernel is not very interesting for the blog post 😄 I am okay with dropping it | 16:36:49 |
hexa | the question would be: why linux, why not glibc, systemd or anything else? 😄 | 16:37:11 |
hexa | like the idea is: what's important about this release? | 16:37:48 |
hexa | and: new package version is available doesn't cut it imo | 16:38:03 |
raitobezarius | Linux 5.15 -> Linux 6.1 is important in this release for bringing up new hardware which are available on the shelves and doesn't boot with 5.15 | 16:38:28 |
raitobezarius | It's peculiar in the sense that usually glibc or systemd upgrades are not the blocker for that | 16:38:46 |
raitobezarius | I can pull like a list of hardware requiring 6.1 and we can mention them as examples to make this more compelling | 16:39:32 |
raitobezarius | But I have weak opinion on this item | 16:39:43 |
hexa | it is not surprising that we'll ship the new LTS kernel tho 🙂 | 16:40:29 |

davidak | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network it is not surprising that we'll ship the new LTS kernel tho 🙂 for us, but people who hear the first time about nixos might care. it can also be noted "but you can easily choose a different kernel version". it might be an issue on other distros and we can promote our strengths | 08:34:51 |
hexa | In reply to @davidak:matrix.org for us, but people who hear the first time about nixos might care. it can also be noted "but you can easily choose a different kernel version". it might be an issue on other distros and we can promote our strengths the idea was that the major version bumps are one click away in the release notes anyhow | 09:03:58 |
