Re: Desktop Questions

[Mark H Weaver]

Hi Marcus,

The proper fora to ask about Guix and GuixSD are address@hidden,
address@hidden, and #guix on Freenode IRC.  That's where you'll find
the attention of Guix developers and users.  I guess that most of them
don't read this list regularly.  I'm only seeing your messages now, 13
weeks after you posted them.
