The last > year's proposal should be a good start. (attached) Thanks for getting the ball rolling! If we base our application on this proposal I think we should make these changes: - mention the work on adding JIT - mention =E2=80=9CChickadee=E2=80=9D instead of =E2=80=9CSly=E2=80=9D (Chi= ckadee is a general purpose game development toolkit that sees continued development, whereas Sly is specifically for game development with functional reactive programming) - change =E2=80=9CAO=E2=80=9D to =E2=80=9Clibfive Studio=E2=80=9D (the proj= ect has been renamed) - add =E2=80=9CR=E2=80=9D to the list of languages for which Guix has great= support - =E2=80=9CGuile make replacement=E2=80=9D? Is this an actual thing? - use HTTPS for http://bootstrappable.org Obviously, the list of topics would need to change (that depends on the proposals for talks) and references to =E2=80=9Clast year=E2=80=9D would ne= ed to be updated. We should also figure out if there are enough people in the extended Guile universe who would be willing to give a talk. If we don=E2=80=99t ha= ve enough topics we might want to share the room with other communities that have some links to us (e.g. other Lispy languages, or =E2=80=9Csmall= =E2=80=9D languages, etc). -- Ricardo
