+[For](https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2018/reproducible-builds-summit-4th-edition/)

+[years](https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2016/reproducible-build-summit-2nd-edition/),
+the Reproducible Builds Summit has become this pleasant and fruitful
+retreat where we Guix hackers like to go and share, brainstorm, and hack
+with people from free software projects and companies who share this
+interest in [reproducible builds](https://reproducible-builds.org/) and
+related issues.  This year, several of us had the chance to be in
+Marrakesh for [the fifth Reproducible Builds
+Summit](https://reproducible-builds.org/events/Marrakesh2019/), which
+was attended by about thirty people.
+
+This blog post summarizes the (subjective!) takeaways from the different
+sessions we attended, and introduces some of the cool hacks that came to
+life on the roof top of the lovely riad that was home to the summit.

+# Java

+  - ?
+
+# Verifying and sharing build results
+
+# Bootstrapping

+# Thanks!
+
+We are grateful to everyone who made this summit possible: Gunner and
+Evelyn of Aspiration, Hannes, Holger, Lamby, and Mattia, as well as our
+kind hosts at Priscilla.  And of course, thanks to all fellow
+participants whose openmindedness and focus made this both a productive
+and a pleasant experience!

+#### About GNU Guix
+
+[GNUÂ Guix](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix) is a transactional package
+manager and an advanced distribution of the GNU system that [respects
+user
+freedom](https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html).
+Guix can be used on top of any system running the kernel Linux, or it
+can be used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686,
+x86_64, ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.
+
+In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports
+transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package management,
+per-user profiles, and garbage collection.  When used as a standalone
+GNU/Linux distribution, Guix offers a declarative, stateless approach to
+operating system configuration management.  Guix is highly customizable
+and hackable through [Guile](https://www.gnu.org/software/guile)
+programming interfaces and extensions to the
+[Scheme](http://schemers.org) language.
