Home from #fosdem and #guixdays had an absolute blast! Thank you everyone for the great conversations and companionship!

Excited to be organizing next years Guix Days and the Declarative and Minimalistic Computing πŸŽ‰

Big thanks to @pjotrprins and @mragkousis for their hard work organizing both these wonderful events this year!πŸ™Œ

Today I'm catching up on work, but I look forward to soliciting the community for additional help! It takes a village!

See y'all next year and hope to stay in touch!

Had a really good #fosdem and #guixdays. My favourite part as always is meeting up with everyone. I’m not sure I could handle more than one FOSDEM a year, but it’s also a shame there’s only one a year :)

Hello #Brussels! Yeah #FOSDEM then #GuixDays

The annual weird feeling: in the same time, exhausting πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« days but refilling 😍 for the rest of year.

Okay, #fosdem (or #guixDays possibly) really started for me!

Edit: crappy alt texts.

@kkremitzki I have good news (kinda!), it actually looks like we may have to move #guixdays to the Monday and Tuesday after #FOSDEM due to a problem finding a location. @pjotrprins is organising it, final decision this week. More details on guix-devel.
#guixdays is awesome!
30 minutes till I set off from London for Brussels πŸ˜„ #FOSDEM #guixdays
In my coffee fueled energy I'm thinking of a "let's make a service!" workshop during #guixdays. Perhaps using #gotosocial or #honk. I'd suggest #tailscale but my service is already working.
Landed in Paris, got some coffee, now just waiting until my train to Brussels for #guixdays and #fosdem!

What's the #1 improvement #guix contributors would like to see?

Timely reviews and actions taken on contributions. It was #1 in every question, with so many comments!

Lots of contributors thinking about ways to automate patch reviews and QA. The theme is removing friction from the Dev Experience.

Both Python and #Nix have approaches to this. What's the approach for Guix? Lots to talk about on this front at #guixdays
