Please share! Hi Miles, There are some talks described here [1]. Guix has only been around as a project for the last ~7 years, so recency shouldn't be too much of an issue, especially if you're interested in a more general overview. 1: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/tree/talks There's also two talks [2] which I've given in the past on Guix, they're a few years old, but I think most of the material is still correct. 2: https://www.cbaines.net/projects/guix/ The FOSDEM 2018 one is shorter, and higher level [3]. 3: https://www.cbaines.net/projects/guix/fosdem-2018/presentation/#/ The Freenode live! 2017 one is longer and more technical [4]. 4: https://www.cbaines.net/projects/guix/freenode-live-2017/presentation/#/ Chris --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEEPonu50WOcg2XVOCyXiijOwuE9XcFAlzUV99fFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDNF ODlFRUU3NDU4RTcyMEQ5NzU0RTBCMjVFMjhBMzNCMEI4NEY1NzcACgkQXiijOwuE 9XfxORAAoS0v6pKE8bRZ7GCnt8EogiRmSEYVaM40Hmv+/0ewmClESmTrVWGIgsd8 zFTydebx/8c83+va+JseSvxqCC2QVc4Qmh7fZVO0LZxFtH1Ilo2JkiraFiTO9Yhj hcTNE1X2+4//UfHWpwMZK6sd4SiwCgUqV44PwpVkKPkAvxTljTc8HdT4b7QVy5Y6 LPO67zogOCSyNZ87+FADnXcxBLPZ+P5wZeAq/xRq45thyBqo6LOYLWCfNbHGituQ qqbDJR3A+UOYlNSnDwcjOvzDbxPLfB2A3SEzjwTieMJMRp/AH6Cbvu0B7olmpGcn i4ZrOcuRUxt1etcZJZVmYxYkHlMdifHlbREJg4B51/0YSK33PuiRfcMmEC9aTu+f SaPrNgu9GxiGgoQlzT6+JReEniOJ4gq2yVKGlo1xHByJhZgL/iJNfRyiqcWNlpi6 eTZBuZJjtsA5nH5xjWf64R23h22NuScfs8J/Zbpnz/YZCMgCOnZRIQnrxJGdHQCc tPVzBEo5bVjsFMI1kn7UFR7YVRqJfPA/Euv6vwfl49cvILentI52j88/+9E/wK39 I/NY2zZou83uVu4QivaI0zLbI3Bmlkjkl4vU5KnTApSYq8Q/cjfnZzpbt3pws7oT Y/tDe+N90wmqW93UDleENDVPzGwTxbKDWB8lroN9NxhQiDOR2fw= =8Mq0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
