Oh dear, I had been thinking about 1 and 2 lately... On systemd, I don't think that it's worth it to even try to port dependent software. Nix is smart enough to warn about/fix dependencies. And "porting" the actual unit files sounds easy IMO, systemd has good documentation on unit files that

I don't believe in individual failure. We should try to put a system in place to avoid this next time. A related issue is that GHC didn't get in either because they didn't have a good page with potential projects. I propose: * Several of us put the next deadline into our calendar (probably

We aren't participating in GSOC 2017, because I missed the submission deadline. That being said, I know people will be disappointed by this. I'm sorry, I have no excuses really. I was overworked at that time and totally forgot to watch the dates. I already applied us two times, I hope I'll

Google Summer of Code applications open on January 19 for organizations[1]. NixOS had previously applied to be an organization in 2014 and 2015 but neither time was accepted. I think it would be great if we could get an application in for this year. It's not clear what criteria the GSoC use for
