>>> Hi everyone!

>>> My name is Cecilia, I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I'm applying =
for an Outreachy Internship, for the period December 2018 to March 2019.

ceive any instructions or suggestions about where to start.

>> Hello Cecilia,
>> welcome in the GNU Guix community.

>> We consider packaging something simple for Guix a good first contributio=
n.
>> You are welcome to look around the package list at https://www.gnu.org/s=
oftware/guix/packages/ , and package something you are missing.
>> Also R packages seem to be easy.
>>
>> For instructions on defining a package see: https://guix.info/manual/en/=
Defining-Packages.html#Defining-Packages
>>
>> You should give a try to installing guix on a foreign distro, or install=
ing GuixSD, on bare metal, or in a VM. It would be useful if you noted any =
hiccups in the process, as installation is not very streamlined yet.
>>
>> You can find further information here:
>> https://guix.info/manual/en/Binary-Installation.html#Binary-Installation
>> https://guix.info/manual/en/System-Installation.html#System-Installation
>>
>> Note that there is an install script in the etc directory of the tarball=
, that can help with a binary installation.
>>
>> Please keep in touch, on the mailing list, and also on IRC. Should you h=
ave any problems feel free to contact me, the other mentors, coordinators, =
or the list, or anyone on IRC.
