<zimoun`>It is the second time I heard about https://www.eessi-hpc.org/ so I am sharing. :-) I do not know what is worth.
<civodul>hi! i re-read about it as well :-)
***zimoun` is now known as zimoun
<zimoun>it seems easy-build on the top of Gentoo with a filesystem I have never heard.
<PurpleSym>civodul: I made some minor adjustments based on your and zimoun’s comments, see https://github.com/PromyLOPh/guix-hpc-website/blob/master/drafts/guix-science.md. You can just squash them onto my first commit.
<PurpleSym>As for PR/proper cooperation: That would have to involve my management. Not sure how it would work for rekado and you.
<civodul>hi PurpleSym! the post looks nice
<civodul>you mean PRs to GitHub?
<PurpleSym>No, publicity for guix-science.
<civodul>ah public relations, not pull requests
<civodul>:-)
<civodul>i'm fine with you managing it, if that's what you mean?
<zimoun>PurpleSym: LGTM.
<PurpleSym>No, civodul, you wrote “it should be presented as an announcement of several research institutes joining forces and calling for contributions”. That would be something I cannot decide by myself.
<rekado>ah, now I understand “my management”
<civodul>oh yes, got it
<civodul>i see two ways: either a statement clearly involving the institutes, in which case the bosses of each institute need to approve
<civodul>or a statement saying the inviduals from institutes X, Y, and Z are collaborating on the repo
<civodul>the former would be nice but may require too much energy for what it's worth
<civodul>the latter is easy to do
<civodul>since i'm not contributing so far, that's something for the three/four of you to figure out :-)
<rekado>I think the latter is close enough and may be read as the former if we don’t draw that much attention to it
<zimoun>I do not know if I will be able to contribute but if it helps for the latter, feel free to add me. :-)
<PurpleSym>Yeah, I prefer to start small and technical.
<PurpleSym>zimoun: What’s your handle on GitHub? I’d add you to the GitHub org and .guix-authorizations.
<zimoun>PurpleSym: my username is zimoun (as almost everywhere :-)). However, I have not GPG stuff… I really need to create one but I always forgetting my password. :-)
<civodul>yeah so let's start more informal
<civodul>if you think it's OK like this, i'm happy to apply the patches so it gets published
<civodul>the twitter account is still suspended and now it's marked as "0 Following 0 Followers"
