On Wednesday, January 20th, I will be giving a presentation about GNU Guix at MIT for the Boston Linux and UNIX user group. In this presentation I will explain the basics of functional package and configuration management, explain what reproducibility is and why matters, and give live demos of various Guix tools. Unlike the other Guix presentations that are given by people involved in HPC, I will be speaking about problems and solutions from the perspective of my day-to-day career: web development.  If you live in the Boston area, I hope that I will see you there.

P.S. - I would really like to record this talk to share with the world on the Guix website, but I have no A/V equipment or expertise. Are there any volunteers with a video camera that are interested in helping my talk reach more people?
