Hi Alex,

I think some of the items you suggests are tasks that people could start
working on right away, as opposed to long-term deep changes, so I’d
encourage you to submit them as wishlist items to bug-g...@gnu.org.

People don’t necessarily use Bash though, but I agree that’s something
like that would be nice, even if that’s just for a specific shell.
That’s something we can already start experimenting with!

What does it mean?  (I don’t know UCI.)

“And” is now the default.  A configurable rec template would be nice,
but it could also be hard to use and thus not very much used; anyway,
we’d need to discuss this in more detail so see what the goal is and how
we can achieve it.

Maybe a ‘guix show’ alias, then?

> * Other

> ~/.guix-profile before evaluating ~/.config/shepherd/init.scm

+1

> ** TODO support automatic GPG/signify signature verification of origin objects

For users or for packagers?

Thanks,
