5
+## Round table
6
+- zimbatm
7
+ - had no spoons to think about cache
8
+- vcunat
9
+ - expensive nixos tests that could be improved
10
+ - noticed `nixos-disk-image.drv` steps taking a long time in send/receive phase
11
+- hexa
12
+ - unhappy with the board decision to let Anduril sponsor, like delroth. At an impass. We need to find a way to work on this together.
13
+ - not sure if delroth is ultimately out.
14
+ - don't want to burn out if delroth is gone.
15
+ - I also don't want to invest time, when the org agrees to military sponsorship.
16
+ - Next step: get to the policy, connect with delroth to see if we can keep working on it together or not.
17
+- Janik
18
+ - opened issue after the open board calls about meeting infrastructure. https://github.com/NixOS/infra/issues/401
19
+ - PR with Jitsi probably soon.
20
+ - Do we have a database for the pads?
21
+ - hexa: should be colocated with the machine.
22
+ - Jonas: do we have hardware for this?
23
+ - hexa: we can try it on caliban. If it grows too big we can move it.
24
+- Linus
25
+ - happy to review what Janik is doing.
26
+ - happy to pair with anyone
27
+- Eelco
28
+ - what the plan with the self-hosting?
29
+ - still in discussion, we intend to a do some exploration with Ceph
30
+ - we still need to find a way to pay for the cache.

38
+ - Lots of POPs
39
+ - Storage
40

41
+ - Proposition in progress.
42
+ - Would like to update the set of people in the infra core for inactive people, in order to be able to reason on who has access, so we can reason about trust.
43
+ - Eelco?
44
+ - Graham?
45
+ - Amine?
46
