Hi! What are the criteria for submitting a nix-community project? I have this repo https://github.com/BirdeeHub/nix-wrapper-modules and I was hoping to let it mature a little bit longer, maybe when it hits 200-500 stars or whatever and get some traction and some repeat contributors, and then submit it? It isn't ready yet, but when would I be able to do that transfer? you might. as an example, Nh repo also started outside of Nix-community, but was adopted after a while | 08:34:00 |
 raf | I think there is no criteria because I have seen projects with 20-40 stars get moved | 08:46:43 |

Ideally the type of projects that are accepted have some level of maturity and can benefit from a shared ownership. The goal is to have as much projects maintained and not for the org to become a graveyard.

 birdee | good to know. This will be a perfect candidate then when there are a few more pieces in place | 11:39:19 |
 Austin Horstman | yeah, i don't think stars is a solid metric. there's going to be a bit of subjectiveness to what is mature enough and what the org feels would benefit from the ownership | 14:09:59 |
| raf | Indeed | 14:51:56 |
| raf | though my point remains that birdee should not worry about a criteria since their projects are usually meticulously maintained and stars (or another arbitrary metric) don't pose a challenge for a transfer | 14:52:22 |
| Austin Horstman | Sorry, was just agreeing with you | 14:54:01 |
| raf | no worries, mine was a "yes and---" more than anything :) | 14:54:26 |
| raf | could a nix-community admin invite @faukah to the nix-community organization so that I can add them to the nh team? | 17:58:11 |

 zowoq | Invite sent. | 02:13:45 |

 Domen Kožar | is there anyone maintaining https://github.com/nix-community/crate2nix? I have a few PRs open and bumping inputs (as a few PRs try to do) would be needed :) | 10:24:31 |
 Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | I did at some point, I still have permissions and would be open to give you them. | 16:54:55 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | Would you like to takeover or just merge your stuff? | 16:56:27 |

| birdee | this is high praise thank you! | 04:22:17 |
| birdee | also I added a flake-parts module today! | 04:22:28 |
| birdee | but yeah the roadmap is, then better docs, then nix-community transfer, and/or services options and then transfer XD
Basically theres some groundwork still to be laid but once it has been it will be "mature" enough for wider ownership | 04:24:31 |
