• Checked the nixpkgs pull requests

For some reason this update did not add an automatic pull request...

Now that the update spam is over, I wonder if it might be time to update the release channel as well.

r-ryantm update PRs don't happen instantly, I'm not sure if the exact timing is documented anywhere.

Still disagree with the idea. Our 23.11 release is starting to be planned, so that one will likely end up with a proper 0.6 release. If upstream doesn't do the same year-long, feature-packed pre-release hell again then I'd be fine with backporting patch releases with fixes onto 23.11.

Read #41448 for past stances & discussions about this, and where future discussions about this are supposed to be done.

Only similar situation I can think of is volth, I'm not sure if that can be considered a false ban though? Unfortunate nonetheless though.

@cafkafk iirc joepie91 got this sledgehammer treatment. Here's a link to someone else who got dragged through hell: https://nrk.neocities.org/articles/miserable-state-of-github-moderation

@OPNA2608 don't worry, from what i hear 0.7 is going to be mostly minor patches and work for hardware export, so i doubt tildearrow will machine-gun prereleases for a while.
