Agree. I think the Guix days are extremely useful. Maybe we should have a Guix day every 6 months. Online during the pandemic and maybe hybrid online/in person after? To keep riding the wave I was thinking we could organise a GNU Hurd day in 3 months. That an idea? I have been toying with GNU Hurd in a VM and I think it is nice. GNU Hurd may not be the greatest performer, but it is small and much easier to secure than Linux, so it could be of interest for IoT and mobile. I know Chris Webber mentioned seL4 which may or may not be an alternative. These microkernels are an interesting space for free software and the timing may be just right. Pj.
