If I'm not mistaken, a procedure in Guile is simply what you would call a function in most other languages. So what I suppose Ricardo is talking about is a procedure that would output a preconfigured os. I've already thought about that kind of "configuration helpers" and I find the idea quite appealing. We could go from "activate x services" to "I want a desktop operating system with bluetooth" ot "I want a server with mail and Tor". The procedure would deal with ports matching etc Have a nice day, L p r n d n
