Abstract: We discuss various concepts of $infty$-homotopies, as well as the relations between them (focussing on the Leibniz type). In particular $infty$-$n$-homotopies appear as the $n$-simplices of the nerve of a complete Lie $infty$-algebra. In the nilpotent case, this nerve is known to be a Kan complex cite{Get09}. We argue that there is a quasi-category of $infty$-algebras and show that for truncated $infty$-algebras, i.e. categorified algebras, this $infty$-categorical structure projects to a strict 2-categorical one. The paper contains a shortcut to $(infty,1)$-categories, as well as a review of Getzler's proof of the Kan property. We make the latter concrete by applying it to the 2-term $infty$-algebra case, thus recovering the concept of homotopy of cite{BC04}, as well as the corresponding composition rule cite{SS07}. We also answer a question of cite{BS07} about composition of $infty$-homotopies of $infty$-algebras.
