How does and should Qubes OS handle firmware bugs which cause cpuid and APIC id mismatch?

I just came back here to see what’s new and surprised that it seems everyone expecting me to write the documentation.
Have I given anything to suggest that I’m a developer who has a github account?
I have also said anonymity is important. Github requires JS, email, and is owned by an abusive big tech corporation.
Therefore, it’s not possible to write the documentation without losing my pseudonymity.

If you don’t want to write the documentation, that’s okay, but if you want to do it without interacting with GitHub, you can just send it to @unman.

I always believed he is a developer but you said you are not a developer.
That’s why I mixed you up with him in this topic.

Yes, that’s me. I’ve never been a developer, just the community manager (and previously the website and documentation maintainer).

Official listing on Qubes website for @adw. To my knowledge, he has never been presented a developer, but has played an important role in communicating user issues to the developers.

Thanks for the kind words!

@ephile

I believe he backed away from this role awhile back, iirc

Ah, you’re probably thinking of me stepping back from the website and documentation maintainer roles a while back:

@ephile

so not sure if listing him as Community Manager is still entirely accurate.

It’s still accurate.
