@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephens Red Hat’s timelines allow Wayland to not be perfect for release adoption. The post even says you should stay on EL9 if you need Xorg   12:56:18
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephens They have probably until the release of EL11 in 5-6 years to fill the gaps 12:59:22

I'd still wait
they probably only support GNOME 🙂

@hexa:lossy.networkhexait is where they invest developer resources after all13:51:48
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaso killing xorg is easier when you don't care about the diversity of window/deskopmanagers13:52:09
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátI suspect it's mainly about them not wanting to officially support X, i.e. solve people's issues with it.13:53:33
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátBy which I mean that we have lots of stuff in nixpkgs that isn't really supported by anyone, but it's still there and it often works.13:54:54

@lennart:0520.chlennart hi infinisil, we would like to drop the trunk-ng package announcement from the Release Notes. such announcements were not done before, but it's added to the New Services section for now. alejandrosame remembered that you kinda wanted it in the Notes though. there were like 16k of new packages added to NixOS 23.05. we would be highlighting such numbers in the announcement, but not individual packages in the Release Notes. OK? 15:23:29
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisil lennart: Sounds good to me! 15:27:19
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilIt would be great to have an overview of new packages in the future, but that would take some time to create15:27:48
