Hi David, "Thompson, David" <dthomps...@worcester.edu> skribis:

I haven’t forgotten about your proposal at: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-08/msg00300.html > * Add a small-scale, general-purpose, "serverless" computing > environment a la AWS Lambda using g-expressions + call-with-container > + a web server Is it something akin to ‘remote-eval’ and ‘container-eval’? https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/36162 > * Improve portable application bundles so that only files needed at > runtime (no headers, docs, etc.) are included somehow (not sure how to > do this one) I guess it boils down to making packages “smaller”, possibly using multiple outputs and generally paying attention to what ‘guix size’ reports. > * Allow system services to run unprivileged (perhaps via user > namespaces) so that each user may have their own shepherd instance > (would be useful for other features, too, such as the first item in > this list) Makes sense to me. Thanks, Ludo’.
