Notes
- Went into FCP again and should be merged soon by the RFC steering committee
- Implementation: mostly discussion since last meeting
- No updates from @infinisil who is just back from time off
-
@DavHau lead the meetings in recent weeks instead, see the repository for updates
What to do with this team
-
@roberth failed to host the meeting and apologizes
-
@growpotkin: * and Alex were present and found some things to discuss.
-
@infinisil: team is responsible for managing working groups, and it doesn’t make a lot of sense to only have updates in these meetings
- Ideas for how to proceed with this team
- Schedule longer review meetings when needed
- E.g. when someone has an idea that would need a working group, or if a working group would like their RFC draft reviewed
- Decision: Do this, but still have regular sync meetings monthly at least
- Leadership rotation
- Everything can be delegated including stream setup
- No decision to do this for now
-
@growpotkin: In general, need stuff to do
- Addressing Nixpkgs issues (e.g. label: significant)
- Weird because we don’t have authority
- review is still useful
-
@growpotkin: Maintenance tasks?
-
@infinisil: Better to focus on fundamental / long standing issues
- Specific things to work on/start a working group for:
- Dissolve the team as a possibility
- Mini “retrospective”:
- We got things done
- RFCs are inherently slow
- How do we motivate people to do this kind of work?
- It’s hard to get people to join a specific task sometimes
- RFC-like process is not fun for everyone
- Some people may want to join when they see RFC 140
Action
- Everyone subscribe to the Nixpkgs Architecture topic on discourse
- infinisil: Schedule the meeting to be monthly → Done, every 4 weeks
