I have been selected as Outreachy applicant for May 2020 round. I like to work with Danny Milosavljevic, the mentor of the project: Guix Integration of desktop environments into GNU Guix I am a self taught computer and software user. I am a Linux user for 15 years. I have used Redhat, Fedora, Debian and others. I have built Linuxfromscratch and Beyond LFS and used them for a custom distro for myself. I know some C, Shell, awk, Perl, Python, Lua and basic system administration. I have heard about Guix from news and have checked about it a little before. I do not know Scheme/Guile Language. How do I get started? What contributions can I make? Thanks, R Veera Kumar mail: vkor@vkten.in, veerakumar.r@gmail.com India
