<Azaiel>
Good evening, I was wondering if there were any NixOS devs or contributors that could /msg me? I had some information I wanted to pass along.

I'd love to find a way to publish Nix docs faster than once per release
<infinisil>
gchristensen: Well, if they were written in Markdown, they would be automatically viewable on github, just sayin
<gchristensen>
that is not a useful avenue of discussion
<infinisil>
Probably everybody is tired of the "switch to markdown" argument by now, and xml seems to be set in stone because of that. I just wanted to mention that that would be a positive side-effect of using markdown
<gchristensen>
yes, that is a well known feature of GitHub.
<FRidh>
gchristensen: we could use travis again
<gchristensen>
for building docs?
<FRidh>
yes
<gchristensen>
+ a publish stage somewhere?
<FRidh>
github pages if its only html
<gchristensen>
hmm
<gchristensen>
nixos.org could also host docs for the different versions of Nix, Nixpkgs, NixOS
<aanderse>
i'm just not sure why a version bump happened in stable
<gchristensen>
hmm by the "letter" of the policy, it is major.minor.patch, but if 1.4 -> 1.5 was a major update, it should not have been done

maybe due to security fixes
<samueldr>
the changelog, linked in the PR, has three security fixes listed
<LnL>
gchristensen: just a thought, would it make sense for ofborg to check this and complain if there's no CVE or security issue mentioned in the commit message?
<aanderse>
gchristensen: it was major. i'm really glad to hear you say that it shouldn't have happened.
<aanderse>
because i've been convincing everyone at work for the last 2 months we should be migrating ~100 servers to nixos and stability is a major requirement :\
<gchristensen>
aanderse: can you tell me more about your use case and requirements
<aanderse>
gchristensen: it really isn't my situation i'm concerned about as it was personal use and i just disabled the gitea module then pulled the old from git. i'm back up and running. the thing that concerns me....
<aanderse>
is that i'm pushing nixos at work, and we version bumps like that in a production environment make me nervous
<gchristensen>
ryght
<clever>
yep, the above code works
<aanderse>
i watched your talk which was maybe a few years ago now... about security and nixos and getting things ready for corporate
<aanderse>
it was great
<gchristensen>
I'm very glad to hear it :) so is andi- but he said so in a PM ;)
* andi-
gets exposed /o\
<andi->
aanderse: there is much to do in that realm if you ask me.. I don't have a plan or a list tho :/
<aanderse>
yeah there is always a load of work to do. but nixops would be such a win where i work that the pros and cons outweigh debian in my opinion :)
<andi->
aanderse: if you have specific concerns from your company please let us know about them. I'd really like to see people accept nixos for production ;)
<aanderse>
andi-: that is awesome to hear. there have been very few strikes against nixos so far. but it probably doesn't help that i've been a nixos fanboy for the past several years ;-)
<aanderse>
heh
<andi->
I feel your pain.. I have a company made of Debian people..
<aanderse>
andi-: i work in public sector which is about as innovative as... debian stable, so i feel your pain :)
<aanderse>
lol
<aanderse>
though the team i work on is made up of really cool and smart people, so that is why they're all willing to give nixos a try
<samueldr>
only reading, not so used to C++/nix code: `getEnv("NIX_SHOW_STATS_PATH","-") != "--"` ?
<clever>
oops, yeah, should only be 1
<samueldr>
:)
<clever>
fix pushed
<samueldr>
json + file... wonder what fun things could come out from that :)
<clever>
samueldr: i was initially only going to add %, but then i noticed i was undoing https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/1859 and making the problem there worse
