Hi Folks,
Is there a good, current, overview presentation on all things GUIX? The
whole who, what, where, when, why, how, how much, and who cares overview
that one might give at USENIX, describing a new distro.
I've been doing a lot of googling, and not finding anything remotely
current. Lots of stuff on detailed aspects, some videos (but no slides)
from FOSDEM 2019 - but nothing that gives the big picture, the overall
architecture, the build process, and so forth.
It seems like the release of v1.0.0 merits a serious
intro/overview/tutorial for those of us who might be interested in
exploring/adopting GUIX.
If there's such a beast floating around, could someone point me at it
(and maybe add a prominent link at https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/).
If not... a polite suggestion to the team: Nobody else can put
something together, it's all too new, and you're the only folks who have
the big picture. Please share!
