Good good. :)

I do have another question about how to apply the FSDG guidelines to Guix.

Specifically in the Complete Distros section it mentions that "if
using it requires further work or presupposes installing other
software as well — then it doesn't belong in this list, even if it is
free software."

Guix is currently not bootable - you install it along with another
distribution that is. Does this mean that Guix doesn't meet criteria
until it is bootable? Or is being installable alongside a 100% free
distro acceptable? Or...? I guess I'm not sure what the intention
behind this part is. With Ludovic's change I think Guix would
otherwise meet all of the criteria.
