+title: Join GNU Guix through Outreachy
+date: 2019-10-01 18:00
+author: Gábor Boskovits
+tags: Outreachy
+---
+We are happy to announce that for the third time GNU Guix offers a
+[three-month internship through
Outreachy](https://www.outreachy.org/december-2019-march-2020-internship-round/communities/gnu-guix/),
+the inclusion program for groups traditionally underrepresented in free
software
+and tech. We currently propose two subjects to work on:
+
+1. [Create Netlink bindings in
Guile](https://www.outreachy.org/december-2019-march-2020-internship-round/communities/gnu-guix/#create-netlink-bindings-in-guile).
+2. [Improve internationalization support for the Guix Data
Service](https://www.outreachy.org/december-2019-march-2020-internship-round/communities/gnu-guix/#improve-internationalization-support-the-guix-).
+
+[Eligible persons](https://www.outreachy.org/apply/eligibility/) should apply
+[by November 22th](https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/).
+
+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/).
+
+#### 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.
