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
@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
Everyone subscribe to the Nixpkgs Architecture topic on discourse
infinisil: Schedule the meeting to be monthly → Done, every 4 weeks
