 dazinism | Guess it would really need some kind of document clarifying the system of governance | 20:23:42 |
| dazinism | Im not sure that this currently exists? | 20:23:55 |
 Izzy | Funny. According to the logs it processes the correct upstream repos then. | 20:23:57 |
| dazinism | But hopefully wouldnt be to difficult (and is likely to be useful) to clarify how things are organised. | 20:25:09 |
| dazinism | I'm even up for helping organise if theres interest. | 20:27:06 |
| dazinism | My mastodon coop ( social.coop ) recently have moved to having Platform 6 as our fiscal host | 20:27:56 |
 cde | dazinism: there's definitely interest in getting something organised, https://gitlab.com/fdroid/admin/-/issues/197 and related issues have some details. | 20:28:05 |
| Izzy | Not really related, but: "ImportError: No module named 'pycares'" | 20:28:12 |
| cde | but I don't know what's the current status. | 20:28:18 |
| dazinism | Previously Open Collective acted as out host, but they are moving away from doing that and instead getting 3rd party orgs to provide that role. | 20:29:28 |
| dazinism | cde: yeah, i've read the issues. Thought id float the idea here before commenting there... | 20:30:18 |
| cde | dazinism: we have weekly meetings on Thursday 1130 UTC, that might be a better time to bring it up. | 20:31:26 |
| Izzy | that's at least something missing in install_requires. | 20:31:44 |
| Izzy | OK, I give up. Seems that just some modules get confused, but others work fine. I must leave analysis to linsui and Hans, who where the last working on issuebot. | 20:43:00 |
| cde | has anyone heard of https://skydroid.app/ | 21:29:30 |
 🏔️hik | First time I see this project | 22:20:07 |
| 🏔️hik | I suppose they do distribution a la Play Store and they don't build anything | 22:22:48 |
| Izzy | 🏔️hik: no play store. But they're not building themselves, that's true. It's rather a kind of decentralized thingy (APKs can be anywhere) with a central resolver (to find out what apps are available). | 22:43:44 |
| Izzy | IIRC it works via user-provided collections. So users can provide their own curated lists. | 22:44:49 |
 Sheogorath | I'm glad to read it's not a blockchain thingy as I suspected on first sight. | 23:25:23 |

 linsui | How can I contact CiaranG? The F-Droid server need update for gradle 7.1.1. | 02:02:32 |
 jochensp | linsui: write a mail (also for the broken git repo) | 03:33:04 |
| linsui | In reply to @_oftc_jochensp:matrix.org
linsui: write a mail (also for the broken git repo) I don't know his email address...😅 | 04:08:44 |

has anyone heard of https://skydroid.app/ mondstern talked to me about it once, but I didn't understand it very well. It seems to be a system where developers can easily share APKs of their apps or so. My apps are in there but I don't understand how :P | 10:20:26 |
| Sylvia | But last I checked they were legit, signed with my key | 10:20:45 |
| Sylvia | I find their comparison a bit... odd. Like, Google Play is not easy because you need a Google account and pay a one-time fee, but SkyDroid is easy because... it only requires owning a domain name? Idk, DNS seems harder to me and also, domains aren't free either :P | 10:24:36 |
