Hi Ricardo, After seeing Blake's talk I remembered about guile-picture-language, which looks awesome. I'd like to play with it (and add it to Homebrew Guile) but unfortunately there's no release tarball as far as I know. For those poor people not using Guix, would it be possible to cut a release with a tarball?
Thank you!
