Hi Joel,

I didn't read the whole thing, but enough to sound interesting. And
having done a little guile programming, I know that language is
outstanding for recursing dependency trees.

Which repository(s) would one use guix and nix against?

By the way, tonight I'm going to try using a 16 source code line init,
and see what happens :-)
