 Fernando Rodrigues | A skeuomorphic tag, maybe? I'm not sure how good that would look. Icons can't have too many details. | 22:03:52 |

the staging one could probably use the generic git icon instead? or a 3-way merge icon. review requests doesnt really make sense to me despite using git day in day out Also, wouldn't the git icon be exactly the same as the current icon, but inside a rounded square and rotated? | 22:04:55 |

 @emma:rory.gay | i hate how there's no iconology for non-one-on-one merging lol | 22:05:42 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | Well, perhaps the idea of using git and branches as the metaphor is wrong. What comes to mind when you think `staging`? | 22:06:20 |
| @emma:rory.gay | git and branches lol | 22:06:33 |
| @emma:rory.gay | well actually no... you say just the word staging, right? | 22:06:48 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | i've had the idea of "staging area" like a large open room or an actual stage. | 22:07:10 |
| @emma:rory.gay | makes me think of server management | 22:07:11 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | but i'm not sure how many people would get that. | 22:07:21 |

makes me think of server management considering we have Infrastructure, System Operations, Networking and probably a few other server-management-related rooms, I think that metaphor will be overused very soon. | 22:08:03 |
| @emma:rory.gay | staging to me is the ops part of development lifecycle, not the dev part (aka testing & deployment, not branch management) | 22:08:23 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | Lifecycle! What if the metaphor is a cycle of some kind | 22:09:06 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | * Lifecycle! What if the metaphor is a cycle of some kind? | 22:09:09 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | * Lifecycle! What if the metaphor is a cycle of some kind? Staging will always be an endless cycle of rebuild-heavy changes going into master | 22:09:44 |
| @emma:rory.gay | isnt it master -> staging? :P | 22:09:59 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | well, and vice-versa if you disregard staging-next. | 22:10:44 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | btw, to clarify your previous concern, here's how the circular mask looks. | 22:13:47 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | I'm glad to hear it! Please let me know if the icons look too similar to one another as more rooms are changed over to the new icons. | 22:16:14 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | ooooh, okay, I understand why samueldr made two separate masks for the globes.
Essentially, all room icons are apparently only meant to be viewed on Element Desktop/Web. The globe in the template is literally just a placeholder. | 22:22:24 |

Essentially, all room icons are apparently only meant to be viewed on Element Desktop/Web. The globe in the template is literally just a placeholder, that's why it's cut off. | 22:22:52 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | I didn't realise this before because I deleted most of the old template and simplified what's left of it. | 22:23:19 |

| syd installs gentoo (they/them) | Hey when I try to join #security-discuss:nixos.org it fails with rejected and also the channel itself doesn't show up in the channel list. | 10:20:18 |

I used to be part of that channel, but lost access with the migration of the nixos matrix organisation. | 10:21:09 |
