   For those wishing to apply to the "Guix Deploy" Google Summer of Code project I'm mentoring, you have two weeks to apply! https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/GSoC-2019#Guix_Deploy https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/

   More has been recently pushed to the wip-deploy2 branch. If you want to talk to me about your ideas, reach out to me as dustyweb in #guix on irc.freenode.net!

     Btw you may be surprised to see, "Oh they're using GOOPS... most of Guix doesn't use GOOPS". That's true! When @dthompson and I sat down to talk over the design, we realized that the main thing we were stumbling over was the polymorphism aspects. Even though it's not as functional by default, GOOPS gave us (and by us I mean mostly Dave, who did the coding) an easy way to not think about that while figuring out the core interface.
