Hi all, When we had an informal compartmentalization dinner at NixCon, one thing that we talked about a lot was how to communicate the ongoing work happening in Spectrum, make it easier for people to get familiar with how the project works etc. And the suggestion that really seemed to vibe with people there was development streams / videos, which have worked well for projects like Serenity OS and Asahi Linux. It’s been a while since then, but in the background myself and some collaborators have been working on setting everything up to be able to do consistent, high quality Spectrum development streams. I’ve done three so far this year, and I plan to keep going at that sort of pace. So far, on stream I’ve been working on implementing support for sharing files with VMs using the XDG File Chooser Portal. Streams are broadcast on https://live.qyliss.net/ And recordings are available at https://diode.zone/c/spectrum/ Currently, there’s no schedule, as it’s usually hard for me to stick to that sort of thing, and I want to get into the rythym of just streaming frequently when I can before I even attempt that. But I’ll try to do some scheduled streams in future if I can, because I know that would make it easier for people to join in. For now, you can be notified when streams start via browser notifications or ActivityPub. Thanks to everbody who suggested this and helped me get set up for it, and I hope this and other things I’m doing (like a proper release of the Cloud Hypervisor patches) make the project seem more alive and vibrant in 2024. :) Alyssa
