After countless hours of pushing for change in the #NixOS project's governance, there's a result!

We're certainly not there yet, but this is definitely an important step forward, that hopefully finally creates space for solving the rest of the issues.
Now excuse me while I hibernate for the next 3 years to recover...
@joepie91 i did not expect this let alone so soon
@bug Lots of folks have been working very hard to make it happen!
It's really still kind of surreal to me how we're here now. It may not look like much, and it isn't much in terms of immediate impact, but *so much* time and effort went into making this seemingly impossible thing happen, and it will make the actual governance work so much easier.
This has taken easily hundreds of hours for me alone...
