Hi!

I’m still a bit in Limbo in getting this bootstrapped. Should I be poking 
someone? :)

I have a tentative branch that you can steal. It compiles but I haven't
tried to run it yet: https://github.com/zimbatm/nixpkgs/tree/hydra-module .
It's really cool what you can do with release.nix but it's also hard to
convert into a standard mkDerivation so I'm not sure I got all the
dependencies right.

Actually Christian Theune volunteered for that, we just have to coordinate
to make it happen :)

I believe there is a plan to have the modules in nixpkgs proper, but it
Hydra doesn't have a release coordinator yet, which is a necessary
pre-requisite.

Great video Peter!

I learned a few things I didn't know yet about hydra and immediately
applied them to our private hydra.lumi.guide.

Thank you.

Re: [Nix-dev] How to set up your own Hydra server (video tutorial)

[zimbatm]

I watched the video yesterday and loved it. Before the video hydra was that
thing that does the builds and I don't know how it works. After the video I
feel like I can setup one myself. Thanks Peter !

One question that was raised, does anyone know why the hydra modules aren't
part of nixpkgs ? Any organisation who wants to adopt nixos is going to
need it's own hydra, the easiest the setup the wider the adoption.
