Cool!

You might be interested by this part of the manual:

    https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/guix.html#Contributing

Roughly speaking,

    git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    cd guix
    guix shell git:send-email -D guix --pure
    ./bootstrap
    ./configure --localstatedir=/var
    make -j
    ./pre-inst-env guix describe

Then add the package to a file somewhere under gnu/packages/.  Well, try
to find a file already containing similar packages.  Then, check all is
fine:

    ./pre-inst-env guix build touchegg
    ./pre-inst-env guix build touchegg --no-grafts --check
    ./pre-inst-env guix lint touchegg

Once ready, commit your changes, and run “git-format-patch”.  Last, send
a request,

    git send-email --to=guix-patches@gnu.org 0001-gnu-*.patch


Hope that helps,
simon
