I would also like to participate in this. I have a big interest in
contributing, but little experience in a project as big as Guix.

I'd like to participate (on- or offline) and yes I think it makes sense
to include guix-help to see if there's some interest.

Cheers,

Well, not sure if there is other overly quiet interest lurking on the
sidelines, but would be happy to figure out a time to crank through a
few of these with you!

Would it also make sense to email guix-help about it as well?

IIUC, the service is not required to hold a meeting, even among more
than two parties.  IIUC, one can simply create a ‘rendezvous point’,
share the identifier and tell everyone to connect to the rendezvous
point.  No jami-service-type required unless you want to set up
moderation or a list of allowed contacts.

Greetings,
Maxime.

As an FSF associate member, you get access to the FSF's Jitsi meet instance 
(https://www.fsf.org/associate/benefits). I use it regularly and it works well. 
I'd be happy to host it.

We are definitively lacking a BBB instance or something for that. :-)
Depending on the numbers of participants, maybe Jami could be an
option.  IIRC, a service is around (an instance is even probably
available) and the client just works with Guix (last time I tried,
thanks Maxim! :-))

Well, I like the idea of one each day, for instance the traditional
"advent calendar" done by Debian Med.  Maybe it could also an option for
this housecleaning.  Say from now until April, 18th (Happy Birthday!
:-)), let clean as much as possible: lint fixes, close irrelevant
tickets, etc.  The most productive people win a drink next time we will
meet. :-)

Another option to embark people (or for motivation) is pair programming.
It could also ease the timezone constraint.  Jérémy (jeko) wrote a nice
blog post for a quick setup using Guix.

(It appears to me being worth to turn it into a cookbook recipe, another
story. :-))

I would like to look over the shoulder of or pair programming with someone 
working on Guixy things. Count me in. I think this is a great idea.
