Hey, this is good stuff! I like how some explanations are framed from
a Rubyists perspective. I hope it may help some Ruby programmers join
in on all the packaging fun.
I would like to correct something in the HACKING.org document:
Note that Docker is a propriety technology and frowned upon by
members of the GNU Guix community.
Docker is free software[0]. Some of us may not be very enthusiastic
about Docker (me), but we do not frown upon it because it gives its
users the 4 freedoms. I also feel that this is a good time to mention
that someone should package the Go compiler. ;)
Thanks,
