Hey folks, was wondering if there would be interest in doing a virtual
meetup where we try and fix issues revealed by "guix lint".

On a fairly recently pulled guix:

  $ guix lint --checkers=description > guix-lint-description
  $ guix lint --checkers=synopsis > guix-lint-description
  $ wc -l guix-lint
  365 /home/vagrant/guix-lint-description
  169 /home/vagrant/guix-lint-synopsis
  534 total

That's over 500 mostly trivial issues to fix!

The description and synopsis fixes are generally pretty easy, so might
make for good first steps for someone wanting to get familiar with the
process of contributing without having to invest a whole lot of time and
energy.

For someone looking for slightly more adventurous things, one could try
fixing other issues guix lint knows about, or fix all issues of a
particular package, or incorporating guix lint knowledge directly into
importers, etc.!


It would be a nice bit of housecleaning. :)

Anyone interested?


I haven't really done this sort of thing virtually before; Where would
be a good place to host it?


live well,
