   Until nix and nixpkgs become GNU software, I don't see why it
   should be your business.

It is the business of everyone who cares about freedom.  If we, the
GNU project and its maintainers, are going to use nix and nixpkgs, and
link it from our web pages it is important that there are no
recommenations to non-free software.

   You can use and recommend nixpkgs-libre.

If that is a completely seperate project, then I can do that.  If it
is part of the nix project, I can't.
