BTW, it’s been a couple of weeks already, but I realize we didn’t write a summary of the Guix workshop and the discussions we’ve had over the weekend. It’d be useful for those who didn’t attend and for lurkers. Any volunteer? :-) If you make it plain text or Markdown, we can make it a blog post.

Heya! I confirm: this was a great Guix workshop and a great FOSDEM again! It’s so intense, to me it’s like living two weeks on three days. :-) I really enjoyed the intimate and focused workshop we had, which is in sharp contrast with the ever more crowded FOSDEM. That alone could justify pursui

So far 24 people have signed up https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/FOSDEM2018 The room can hold 50 people, so we should have enough space. Even so, if you plan to show up unannounced, we will stop at 50. So better to sign up. Besides, we can plan for coffee/lunch that way. Thanks, Pj.
