Who wants to help out with organising Guix days (Jan 30+31) and or the
FOSDEM devroom (Feb 1+2)?

Every year these meetings are a great success and a driver for
discussion and change in Guix and Guile. Mes came out of this.  I
would argue prescheme and hoot as well. Exciting stuff! Also the
greater FOSDEM is amazing. If you never attended, do consider going! 

Not to depend on the same actors we invite people to help select
speakers and organise these days. It is not a lot of work because we
are old hands by now. If anything we were getting a bit complacent
leaving things till the last minute. Hopefully we do better this year
:)

So, feel free to edit above pages. Reply to Manolis or me in person if
you want to help out.
