Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Something ate up all the space on builders? https://hydra.nixos.org/build/321929731/nixlog/1 | 14:46:09 |

vcunat | The tmpfs space isn't that huge. | 17:51:54 |
Julien | Hello hello | 20:27:24 |
Julien | Would it cause any issue to the infra team if the nixos project took ownership of nixpkgs-update ? | 20:27:55 |
Julien | If I understand correctly, short term that would involve just transfering the server(s) to our hetzner account | 20:28:44 |
Julien | Maybe some context here: with potential unstability in the short-term future of nix-community, SC had been contacted to recommend nixpkgs-update migrates to the NixOS org. | 20:39:02 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | https://github.com/orgs/nix-community/discussions/2132 is the related discussion at nix-community | 23:16:44 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | We certainly need to make sure nix-update keeps working | 23:17:10 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | There is no Haskell knowledge in the infra team from what I know. | 23:17:34 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | But maintaining another machine should not be a problem | 23:18:28 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | We will stop building into nixpkgs/{unstable,staging-next} for x86_64-darwin after 26.05 is branched off. This is in agreement with the relevant people who maintain Darwin support. | 23:43:49 |
Winter | exciting! | 23:44:43 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | We'll still keep building x86_64-darwin for 25.11 and 26.05 until their relevant EOL dates. | 23:45:25 |

Julien | hexa (signing key rotation when): I am interpreting your answer as: no short term blockage to take ownership of the deployment. I agree that take ownership of the maintenance of the software is something else. | 10:01:22 |
Julien | Great thanks! | 10:03:17 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | We need someone to update the RFC39 tooling. GitHub has deprecated the API we use to manage team members and the GitHub bindings (hubcaps) are unmaintained since 2020. | 16:22:33 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | https://github.com/NixOS/rfc39 | 16:22:41 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | also all of the dependencies are stuck in like 2018 | 16:23:58 |
emily | I have some thoughts on the RFC 39 things I plan to post soon | 16:24:13 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | You mean the process? | 16:24:38 |
emily | it is probably a bad idea to have a long-lived token that powerful lying around. it probably makes sense to do it from within GHA or to move to a more self-service model where any committer can invite people to the maintainers team and merging new maintainers blocks on that | 16:25:16 |
emily | (I believe that the rfc39 bot could most likely arbitrarily make any GitHub user committer right now?) | 16:26:01 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | No idea, I never looked at that token | 16:27:30 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | But given that no bot account has the maintainer role on the maintainers team, probably | 16:27:54 |
hexa (signing key rotation when) | hm, it's an app apparently | 16:30:31 |
