WSL2 is also a VM. docker relies on the linux kernel apis, so it must be ran inside a linux VM on macos or windows


Windows does have a native sandboxing API that Docker is capable of using IIRC, but nobody uses it.

The macOS situation is even worse in that the kernel lacks the requisite capabilities.


Here's the team's description https://nixos.org/community/teams/nixpkgs-core/. They were able to accomplish quite a lot of useful work. The steering committee is a separate organization (https://nixos.org/community/teams/steering-committee/) that contains more people and arguably accomplishes less.


The post has nothing to do with the election drama you cite:

> These issues have persisted despite our repeated attempts to discuss them. This is, of course, a systemic problem rather than one any single SC member could solve; we don’t envy the demands of the role, have been impressed by the efforts of several members, and recognize that every individual naturally has limited time and energy and can only do so much in the context of a representative majoritarian committee.


I did. And half the post was them talking shit about the SC. Maybe you should read the post?


Maintenance and updates will continue as usual. The maintainers formerly on the nixpkgs core team aren't even stopping their individual contributions.
