Hi,

Neat.  Could you add a test, an @item in doc/guix.texi next to the other
updaters, and a commit log?

Please add a docstring to all top-level procedures.

PORT is not closed.  If you’re going to load it all in memory, just
leave #:streaming? to #f and you’ll get a string instead of a port.

This is terrible.  :-)

(guix import go) and (guix gnu-maintenance) use (htmlprag) for that.
Would that work for you?

Thinking about it, the strategy looks very similar to that of the
‘generic-html’ updater.

Would it be enough to add a ‘release-monitoring-url’ property to the
relevant LibreOffice packages?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
