In addition to the above, I have been organizing Aux, a Nix ecosystem fork, with the goal of establishing better community governance (though there is a lot of work well-beyond social tasks that need to be done to get there). I would like to see Nix adopt some of the strategies I have been pushing Aux toward.
I’d also like to note that I do not see myself as a particularly important figure in the Nix ecosystem. There are many other people who do far more to make Nix as amazing as it is. However, I would still like to try and help nudge Nix in a positive direction if I am able.

@Infinisil the code of conduct link in the zulip instance seems to be broken.
The link currently points at https://github.com/NixOS/foundation/blob/ec4c538f3e52d07628a937d077c9fa1ad1596286/governance/coc.md
I think maybe the intended target was GitHub - NixOS/foundation: This is the home of the NixOS Foundation
The code of conduct link should start working once it sees approval by the board. It is a different code of conduct from the normal one that applies to the rest of the community; this one is tailored to the purpose of the governance discussions.
(Note that further discussion should go into the discussion meta-thread, not here)
It’s not direct nix contributions, but I’m a minor contributor to Guix and I have a vested interest in the future of Nix.

I would understand if this is not considered sufficient. Thanks for your time.

For GitHub contributions, please use this GitHub issue instead!
All requests above have been addressed, everybody was invited
I’m not quite sure how low the bar is, but I thought I might as well try and apply. Feel free to use me as an example if you reject me. Be warned, however, I do expect my self-sacrifice to be regarded as evidence for the discussion prior to the next constitutional assembly
Contribution: I’ve been a semi-active member on this Discourse for ~3 years. (Mostly out of self-interest). I have also opened a few small issues on GitHub, but I have similar doubts there, so I thought I might as well post here first. I have no other qualifications to really speak of.

Misc
I originally intended to ask a related question on the other thread first before applying, but that thread seems to have been temporarily closed. It was exactly the question I posted (and deleted) here by mistake.
That seems fine to me, invited!

@glepage Love nixvim, such a good contribution.
Thanks
I’m posting a request here as well as I haven’t made any PRs myself, so understand if I don’t qualify…

…and I’m a real person you can check my GitHub
@glepage @SeineEloquenz Since your contributions were on GitHub, it would’ve been better to post them in Request for a Zulip account for governance discussion · Issue #143 · NixOS/foundation · GitHub, but it’s fine and you’ve been invited!
@dedguy21 I’m afraid that contribution doesn’t really clear the bar, sorry!
@Infinisil thanks for the consideration anyway appreciate it. And that you have kept the instance open for anyone to read, just not actively participate, is good enough for me. Appreciate it
