I’m still in support of moving away from a monorepo. I haven’t used josh before so I don’t have much of an opinion on it. Either way restructuring would be a huge task. I feel like in the restructuring process we have two main methods of going about it:
- Fork nixpkgs and break it up into its new structure
- Create a new repo that depends on nixpkgs as a flake input and work towards migrating everything into the new repo (or set of repos) to the point that we can drop the nixpkgs dependence
Edit: I feel the latter option may be more manageable as it allows us to slowly ramp up to maintaining our set of packages instead of maintaining 80000+ right at the start
