| rowan joined the room. | 09:45:11 |
rowan | Hey, sorry if I've missed the obvious, but is there a room/chat somewhere specifically for the LixCon next week? :) | 10:06:42 |
zoë (she/her) | on matrix I'm not sure, but there also the zulip channel (and the con website for general info) | 10:22:48 |
raitobezarius | We will probably make a Signal group rather than a Matrix channel because IME, Matrix is not super reliable for in-real-life conferences | 10:25:05 |
raitobezarius | (and make a public link for everyfew to join) | 10:25:11 |

a Signal group
one more messaging app to install...

raitobezarius | i mean, the matrix channel is usually not very usable in practice ^^ | 10:53:47 |
zoë (she/her) | oh no i definitely agree it's a better choice | 10:55:04 |

blitz | Hey lixers! Does anyone know what the current status of the work on capnproto is? I'm wondering what my options are to talk to the Lix daemon from Rust without FFI to C++ | 17:41:33 |
blitz | (background: I'm currently removing the FFI in attic that talks to the nix daemon via the c++ libraries and I'm wondering whether shelling out to nix-store is the only option at the moment) | 17:43:09 |
piegames | The status is please hold the line | 17:47:14 |
piegames | Should be all set up within the next 6 months | 17:47:27 |
piegames | Current work status is we have some internal protocols running on Capnproto already, but the main protocols need an interop story and everything's FUBAR and the person driving this got a bit burnt working on it and is currently taking a little break to recover. | 17:49:25 |
blitz | That's fair | 18:00:51 |
blitz | So shelling out it is 😅 | 18:01:15 |
Yureka (she/her) | you could also directly implement the existing nix daemon protocol | 18:02:11 |
Yureka (she/her) | or whatever version of it | 18:02:41 |
