With the release of NixOS 24.05 complete, @wegank announced the accompanying Retrospective Meeting for Sunday, June 9th. If you participated in the release process this year or have useful feedback for what worked well, poorly, or was average, then please consider joining to help improve future releases.

@avocadoom let the community know that the Marketing team is looking for support in the social media department. The Marketing team maintains regular posts about community news across multiple social media channels. If you feel that you could fill the role, the team can be reached on Matrix at #marketing:nixos.org.

@matklad posted about Brioche, a nix-like package manager written in Rust. While the project is not directly related to Nix, it brings together many learnings from Nix and other tools that the Nix community may find useful to reflect on. The official announcement is available on Brioche’s website.
