Hi Mathieu, You can submit to both devrooms. As a coordinator of the minimalistic devroom I think your talk fits. Mind, it still needs to go through the review of the devroom to get selected. But yes, Guix represents minimalism to me even though we still need to work to make it really suitable for embedded systems (like routers). Pj.
