You're invited to the first patch review session!

[Steve George]

Hi

We're going to run some online patch review sessions. The first one is on 
*Thursday, 7th March* and you can sign-up here:

  https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/PatchReviewSessions2024

The background is that Guix has many fantastic contributions that are waiting 
to be reviewed and added to the archive. We have the QA system that does test 
builds, but each patch also needs to be evaluated and checked. Anyone can 
review patches, and reviews help to confirm that a patch is in good shape to be 
added to the archive.

Doing patch reviews is also a great way to learn about Guix, the different 
packages and methods involved in packaging. To encourage new reviewers to step 
forward, and to have some fun we're going to run on-line patch review sessions. 
These will be informal, probably chaotic - but fun - with the aim that we learn 
as a group how to review packages.

Each session will be hour 1:30 and they are rotating through the week, so there 
should be plenty of opportunities to come along. We're using the Guix London's 
Meet-up and the sessions run on Jitsi. 

We'll try and talk a bit about how to do reviews, and then we'll try and do 
some reviews, learning and asking questions together!

Hope to see you there!
