Thinking about doing a Talk at FOSDEM

Thinking about doing a Talk at FOSDEM

[Tobias Alexandra Platen]

Hello,

I recently had a look at FOSDEM's accepted developer rooms 
and I am thinking of doing a talk this year again. Last year
I did my first talk "Using the ECP5 for Libre-SOC prototyping" last
year, this year I think of doing a talk about my recent and future
work on Guix: My plans are getting the full "GNU Guix System"
running on non-x86 hardware including OpenPOWER and ARM machines,
starting with the Respects Your Freedom certified[1] ones, then
moving to Smartphones[2] and other android devices.

Firstly, wow, I wish you much success with your plans.

Secondly, my first question would be how much different it is in
comparison with Guix System already fully running on some of the aarch64
and riscv64 (and even armhf) machines that are already available?
