The Guix Days! (FOSDEM 2020)

[Pjotr Prins <pjotr.public12@thebird.nl>]

Dear all,

FOSDEM is coming early February and not only are we organizing the GNU
Guix days, we also have a devroom with exciting talks on Guile, Guix,
and Mes! See 

  https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/FOSDEM2020

and

  https://fosdem.org/2020/schedule/track/minimalistic_experimental_and_emerging_languages/

FOSDEM is the greatest free software conference on earth (in my opinion)
and almost everyone who goes once keeps coming because there is
something for everyone. 

See last years amazing program for Saturday:

Both FOSDEM and Guix days are free to attend! The evening program is
great too - you can find hacker nirvana.

We can only receive up to 40 people for the Guix days (last year we
had 35) and we need to reserve the catering. So, please sign up on the
libreplanet link above, if you intend to come. If we happen to have
too many people to attend the meeting the 40 who signed up have a
guaranteed entry. If you don't want to subscribe to the wiki you can
send us a request to add.

Pjotr & Manolis.
