 @gdesforges:matrix.org | I feel like it's really hard to reach out to Nix users in a specific region, e.g. to organize meetups. I've seen nix.ug initiative, but IMO most people won't find it until it has been made official. I see there is a meetup section in "community" of official nixos.org, but most meetups there seem dead. Maybe localized communities is a topic worth investigating for the marketing team? | 13:49:31 |

Just a link on nixos.org would be cool, it doesn't need to be "official"[. | 13:50:32 |

| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | If that's what official means then I agree :D | 13:50:40 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | also if I could get a boost on this one that'd be <3

| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | there are a lot more nix people on ActivityPub than expected, so good to send it there too | 13:51:28 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | There are a lot of Nixxers in Paris, so I expect this to go well | 13:51:46 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | and a boost on this one

There are a lot of Nixxers in Paris, so I expect this to go well well, apparently not so many | 13:52:05 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | or it's hard to reach out to them | 13:52:10 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I've put it on ActivityPub | 13:52:17 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | or I don't know how | 13:52:19 |

| @gdesforges:matrix.org | thanks matthewcroughan - nix.how | 13:53:32 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Reposted on all 3 :) | 13:53:57 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | you're awesome :) | 13:54:35 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | if the official NixOS linkedin or marketing could repost as well that'd be 💯 | 13:55:11 |

 evils | so, i'm gonna be doing a Nix intro workshop
which basically entails luring people in with cookies and then making it up as i go along
besides nixos.org/learn and zero-to-nix
are there any introductory materials you recommend point people to? | 05:03:44 |

| garbas | evils: I would say nix.dev is also good starting point | 11:17:55 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | evils it might interest the documentation team that it's not obvious where to start. It could be made more evident on the NixOS web front page for instance. | 11:35:09 |

| @gabriella439:matrix.org | Right now I'm working on a book called "NixOS in Production" and would like to request permission to use the NixOS logo on the cover of the book. You can see what the current cover looks like here: https://leanpub.com/nixos-in-production
I wasn't sure if this was the correct place to ask, so feel free to redirect me if necessary if someone else is in charge of the NixOS logo/trademark | 15:40:47 |

It is a current topic of discussion in the Foundation Board meetings, so I recommend reaching out to them. I can also give them a heads up. | 15:58:15 |
| @gabriella439:matrix.org | What's the best way to contact them? | 15:58:44 |
