Hello,
I'd be interested in doing a round 2 of mentoring for Guix Deploy.
The previous student (Jakob L. Kreuze) will not be a GSoC student this
year but is willing to co-mentor. (Maybe David Thompson is as well but
I won't speak for him since we haven't discussed it yet.)
Wonderful idea, please add it to the GSoC 2020 ideas page if you haven't done so.
I don't know what the situation with Outreachy slots are, but I'd also
be happy to mentor this for there as well, obviously.
The proposal deadline for this round has passed, so we can't do that right now. If we still have work to do in this area ( I believe we will) when the next round comes around, I will be happy to help in forming the proposal. I will soon publish a blog post with the relevant deadlines for both program.
I think there's probably more that can be done to improve environments.
This includes initial bootstrapping of environments, making more
environments available, etc.
Let me also put out a goal for the Guix community: I think we'll see
Guix Deploy as a success if a bunch of us can switch over to using it on
our own servers (that includes me). To that end, I'd love to know, how
many people are doing so, or have attempted to do so? What features
would you like/need?
I believe this is a great initiative. Thanks for bringing this up.
Best regards,
g_bor
