This already looks great. I actually had the idea to create such a site last year (#284):
"Nixpkgs Maintainers" is currently missing, but they are an important part of the ecosystem. Until we can get a list of maintainers from ElasticSearch and have a good description what these people do, we can just add it as section with title "Nixpkgs Maintainers" and text "The package maintainers keep the packages up-to-date and fix reported problems." without further link... I think that is better than not mentioning them. Update: I see now what you meant in the chat. They are not really a team that meet and work together, so it don't fit under the heading "Teams" on the site. We could just ignore that and improve later (i don't have an idea how) or don't add it there. The package maintainers can also be mentioned in a Contribution guide... |
* infrastructure * nixcon * nixos release
we probably could write something better, but for now this is what we have
|
on some pages I call people by full name somewhere by irc nick somewhere else by github handle. I guess I should choose one :) |
|
@garbas I think the community would understand full name and github handle in parenthesis. |
|
I do know of at least two people in the community that want to remain semi-anonymous, so in that case you should just use their GitHub. (I believe one of them is in the webpage actually) |
yes, that makes sense. since the package maintainers are normal community members and there is no team that governs them. we might want to establish a packaging working group later to coordinate getting maintainers for abandoned packages, define workflow and responsibility of maintainers etc |
Yep, I agree with you on all points. |

This pull request has been mentioned on NixOS Discourse. There might be relevant details there: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/marketing-team-meeting-minutes-2/6537/1 |

Another official source of governance is Discourse admins and moderators: Admins: Moderators: |

I added a PR for it #378 |
add Discourse Team
|
Sorry, I was going to use the CI to test it first, it looks like it isn't good yet. |
fixup Discourse team
|
No worries. Thank you a ton for adding it. |
I'll use the following format:
I think that would provide all information to be able to contact and follow how people want to be presented. |
This page was inspired by Goverance page on Rust website and replaced/consumed existing Security item from the top navigation bar.
Have I missed any other team?
