Ricardo, I don't know who wrote the current intro, but I think it's pretty good. Have you got negative feedback from curious visitors?

But what is this thing > called Guix? It's not just a list of features. The current intro is: - Liberating. The Guix System Distribution (GuixSD) is an advanced distribution of the GNU operating system developed by the GNU Project—which respects the freedom of computer users. - Dependable. It comes with the GNU Guix package manager, which in addition to standard package management features, supports transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package management, per-user profiles, and more. - Hackable. It provides Guile Scheme APIs, including high-level embedded domain-specific languages (EDSLs) to define packages and whole-system configurations. I like the way it mixes description, features, and values without getting lost in marketing-speak. It also breaks up the text into small chunks, which is apparently mandatory on the 'Net. That's not to say there's no room for improvement. Paragraph #1 in particular might be a bit vague and verbose. But who's talking. > We should add a very short paragraph above that list to say what Guix > and GuixSD are. >> What do you think? Hm, what do you suggest? Kind regards, T G-R
