Hi Denis,

Thanks for reading through it.

This is a difficult to do in a nice way without a wall of text. It's a key 
question so I've added help text:

For this question choose **User** if you use Guix: this includes community 
members who promote the project and take part in the support channels. Choose 
**Contributor** if you also sent patches of any form: whether those are code, 
documentation, translations or anything else. Choose **Committer** if you have 
access to the Guix Git repository.

I think these are equivalent to be honest, but happy to change it.

Added it, since that's certainly the reason I started using Guix. This question 
is trying explore the "initial interest" so it's reasonable to have a variety 
of things.
