Minutes

  • Budget
  • Socials
  • Office hours
    • @idabzo is suggesting setting up office hours for the marketing team (1 hour per week, with the marketing leader responsible for being in the jitsi room). What do you think?
  • Astro 5 Content Collections
  • Issue backlog
    • @avocadoom: Has been going through issues what needs to be addressed now and fix them to reduce the issue backlog.
  • Commercial Support page
    • @avocadoom: Maintenance is not a problem.
    • @avocadoom: But should define clear rules about who is allowed to be on this page.
    • @tomberek: There should be some prior art about guidelines. Search for old PRs and there should be something.
    • @avocadoom: There should be some mention of Nix or a page dedicated to their Nix services.
    • @tomberek: Worried about spam PRs that are trying to improve their SEO.
    • @avocadoom: Will work on a policy statement for the Commercial Support page.
  • Branding
    • @djacu: A little slow this past week but currently working on fonts.
  • Partners page
    • @djacu: Partners don’t have as nice of a page as commercial support.
    • @tomberek: We have to do a better job of saying “thank you”.
    • @avocadoom: Will think about it. Possibly include partners on the landing page.
  • nixos-homepage Darwin devShell
    • @albertc: I have a branch that fixes the devshell on darwin. Was hoping to make a PR for it before the meeting but I wanted to check a few more things before doing so and my internet here sucks, so I’ll try to push that up tomorrow or Wednesday. One thing that I seem to see in limited testing so far is that the symlink file watching doesn’t seem to be an issue on darwin, so I wonder if there’s some difference in linux inotify vs os x fsevents and how astro/vite/chokidar is configured on top.
