I wanna get into guix development. Since I don't know any programming, I
would be most useful in packaging software for guix. I want to package
lxqt. I know qt5 is in the guix repo. So it wouldn't be very hard to
package it, I think. But how do you package and upload software to the
repo? Do I have to sign up on anything or get a gnu email or something?

Just try to package something and send the result for constructive criticism
to the list. I would suggest to start with something simple, not a complete
desktop environment.
You may wish to have a look at
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/guix-ghm-andreas-20130823.pdf ,
where I explain how to create simple and slightly less simple packages.

Hi, I'm interesting in in packaging lxqt too :)
I think the best start point is using any IRC client, join #guix at freenode!
