I see a little of Hurd may be rubbing off on GNU/Linux (that .guix-profile thing reminded me one of the uses of user-land mount points / translators.) Seems like great news!
Regarding going Guix 1.0, I'd say we should see how Guix plays out, although I'm personally inclined to go Guix. This is the first time I heard of it. Is it a really sound distro? Aside from the package manager, how would it differ from gNewSense? dmd? Init system?
