Hi Greg, Ludo', 

I think 5 months are a long but not unbelieveable amount of time, especially if the team has to be onboarded in that time frame as well.

I work for my dayjob as Release Engineer at a company that makes another Linux distribution, so I happen to have an idea of some of the necessary task around releases, never did in Guix context but I'd be willing to learn anything required.

If a team is formed I would love to participate in Guix 1.5 release, for sure I don't think I can lead it but if I my work can help increase the bus factor please count me in.

Cheers,

giacomo
