Does it make sense to raise Alpine/musl from Experimental to Tier 2 for the new release line?
mhdawson commentedon Sep 1, 2021
@nschonni I think raising Alpine/musl has been waiting on more active contributors/collaborators working to support it. (ie who would be our go-to people to involve when there are problems/issues that need to be resolved) I'm not sure I've seen that change substantially.
nschonni commentedon Sep 1, 2021
Right, I think it's still mostly just @rvagg and @richardlau that do the care and feeding for those on the Unofficial Builds still.
rvagg commentedon Sep 2, 2021
The @nodejs/docker folks are pretty on-the-ball wrt Alpine builds, although I'm not sure there's anyone on there that wants to be on the hook to support core when things break. We do already have Alpine in our CI mix so breakage is already something we look for with every commit and it's been pretty stable, so I think it might even already qualify for Tier 2:
@nodejs/docker do we have any people willing to be put on a
@nodejs/muslgroup to be go-to if/when weird musl things break that nobody else has expertise or setups to debug?mhdawson commentedon Oct 27, 2021
Since 17.x went out I think this can be closed.
