okay then lets employ a simple extra question. "The package manager of NixOS"
<fadenb>
Yep, will be implemented right after breakfast.

Why am I up so early anyway? Vacation mode has not kicked in yet :p

Okay, samueldr, pitch me on this channel :)
<samueldr>
sorry, pitch you about what?
<judson>
I'm right that nixos.wiki is the right place?
cransom has joined joined #nixos-wiki
<samueldr>
I hope so, that's what this channel is all about :)
<samueldr>
there's the nixoswikibot that will be noisy when pages are edited
<samueldr>
and there's sometimes discussions about the wiki
<judson>
Okay, cool.
<judson>
Mostly I was just trying to determine what this channel has that #nixos doesn't
<judson>
The bot is enough all by itself.
<samueldr>
:D, otherwise when there's discussion about the state / contents of the wiki, by the usual contributors, it all happens here
<samueldr>
(the bot is how I knew there were fresh edits)
<fadenb>
An we all act surprised when a Spammer uses the wiki ;)
<judson>
I'm starting a page to try to build up a consensus policy about handling foriegn repos (e.g. npm, rubygems, pypi) - right now it's orphaned except for category links.
<makefu>
judson: sounds great. the wiki is definitly the right place to store this info :)
<judson>
Cool.
<judson>
I mean, at some point I think it belongs in the Nixpkgs manual somewhere. But atm we need to push it around somewhere we can collaborate on it
<makefu>
yes, correct
<samueldr>
I personally think it's alright if the wiki serves as a kind of incubator for documentation while it's being written up
<samueldr>
(in addition to other topics that can't really fit in the manual)
<makefu>
and some info simply does not belong into the manual. it is clogged enough already
<makefu>
!
<judson>
Absolutely
<judson>
Are the nix-pills copied into the wiki yet? Is lethalman okay with that?
<makefu>
the nix-pills are now part of the "official" documentation
