+title: Join GNU Guix through Outreachy
+date: 2020-01-07 14:00
+author: Gábor Boskovits
+tags: Outreachy
+---
+We are happy to announce that for the fourth time GNU Guix offers a
+[three-month internship through Outreachy](https://www.outreachy.org),
+the inclusion program for groups traditionally underrepresented in free 
software
+and tech. We currently propose [four 
subjects](https://www.outreachy.org/apply/project-selection/#gnu-guix) to work 
on:
+
+1. Create [Netlink](https://linux.die.net/man/7/netlink) bindings in Guile
+2. Improve internationalization support for the [Guix Data 
Service](http://data.guix.gnu.org) 
+3. Add accessibility support for the [Guix System 
Installer](https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Guided-Graphical-Installation.html)
+4. Add monitoring support for [Guix](https://guix.gnu.org) daemon and 
[Cuirass](https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Continuous-Integration.html)
+
+The initial applications for this round open on Jan. 20, 2020 at 4pm UTC and 
the initial application deadline is on Feb. 25, 2020 at 4pm UTC.
+
+The final project list is announced on Feb. 25, 2020.
+
+For further information see: 
[timeline](https://www.outreachy.org/apply/project-selection).
+
+For information about the application process see: 
[application](https://www.outreachy.org/apply).
+
+For the eligibilty rules see: 
[eligibility](https://www.outreachy.org/apply/eligibility).
+
+If you’d like to 
[contribute](https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Contributing.html)
+to computing freedom, Scheme, functional programming, or operating system
+development, now is a good time to join us. Let’s get in touch on
+[the mailing lists and on the #guix channel on the Freenode IRC 
network](https://guix.gnu.org/contact/)!
+
+Last year we had the pleasure to welcome Laura Lazzati as an Outreachy intern 
working on [documentation video 
creation](https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/documentation-video-creation/) which 
lead to the videos you can now see on the home page.
+
+#### About GNU Guix
+
+[GNU Guix](https://guix.gnu.org) 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.
