Notes: @fricklerhandwerk @Mic92 @domenkozar @olaf @infinisil @Ericson2314
- updates on NixOS Wiki adminstration (20 min)
- sponataneously touched on what should be a project in the Nix ecosystem (5 min)
- decision: the Foundation board should deal with this, but it may take some time
- discussed Nix language tutorial draft (30 min)
additional discussion:
-
@Ericson2314 how do we prioritize conceptual foundations vs. tutorials?
-
@domenkozar we first focus on providing practical tutorials and later support with concepts
- reference material should be a different, independent category
- we try to push something out incrementally
- having something at all is better than what we currently have
- later link to references once they are in shape
-
@Ericson2314 reference work should continue concurrently, would like to focus on the manuals
- @fricklerhandwerk sure
- is anything blocking https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6420?
-
@fricklerhandwerk no, just have to go through review
- we can put it on the agenda for next time
- who would have to approve? @edolstra, @domenkozar?
-
@fricklerhandwerk no, just have to go through review
- tutorials should be based on reference documentation
- reference can be used to clarify instructions
- @fricklerhandwerk yes, we already agreed on that
-
@domenkozar we first focus on providing practical tutorials and later support with concepts
