Looks like home manager is on track to become an official NixOS project, at least according to a SC vote. The actual transfer is still up to the project owners.

Looks like this never got published.

Also, while I'm here, a brief travel fatigue fueled rant about NixOS transparency.

You guys wanted transparency, right? Well, the votes and opinions for every major decision the Steering Committie makes are right here, in a public GitHub repo. For everyone to see. You can get every comment and PR emailed directly INTO YOUR INBOX FOR FREE EVERY DAY.

*Looks at watcher count*

34

I'm going to bed, and when I wake up, we had better have way way more than that.

Sorry for the random aggro. But like. We can immediately work towards better processes in our org by increasing the number of eyeballs on leadership. It's so easy! And, like, they want us to watch them!

Anyway 🛌

Well, I'm awake and we do have 3 more, which, by the math, is roughly a <10% increase in watchers on the SC votes.

Haha, whatever, I'll take it.

But there is a non-zero chance I'll point people here when someone mentions The Ills Of The Community again.

We've finally got a community governece system in place. It's not perfect (far from it), but we did it! It was a huge hubbub to get it all set up in the first place, but now it feels like nobody actually cares anymore.

Not many projects get here! Others try to do this and just trip on their shoelaces. So let's make this one work.
