Hey, just to clarify this is not a job posting. This is a role volunteers take on to improve the ecosystem without expection of monetary gain. Oh well I said I was a good writer. Maybe not the best listener. I'm still interested. I'll never have more free time than right now. I'd love to help. I can start right away but I am traveling to Austin later this week for Linux Fest. And OK, well if those other two Release Editors crap out on you, please give old Jeff a call and I'll come runnin. Thanks. | 11:08:12 |
| westexjeff | I'm not a Linux Newbie but I have not had time for NixOS. Now I do so I'll be working on it. Thanks Y'all | 11:09:50 |

Weijia: wdym backup 😄 To me, this means "if there's no release manager candidate in the next few weeks, think of me or Jonathan" | 11:16:12 |
| hexa | ok, but we are kinda on the spot here | 11:16:31 |
| hexa | the first announcement should have happened a few days ago | 11:16:42 |
| hexa | and breaking changes freeze is supposed to be in <10d | 11:16:57 |
| hexa | and we need a primary to take care of the announcements etc. | 11:17:15 |
| hexa | so I'm not sure what backup means in the primary/secondary relationship | 11:17:32 |
| hexa | and we'd rather onboard new people into the role, when they're available | 11:17:48 |
| hexa | we're lots of previous release managers in this room who can answer questions, and we have a release documentation that we've iterated on for a few releases now | 11:19:46 |
