Hi Roel,
I’m interested in moving the GWL modules to their own namespace to avoid
potential clashes with future versions of Guix. Currently, GWL modules
share the “(guix …)” and “(gnu …)” namespaces.
I think it would be clearer to move all but the scripts (which extend
Guix) to “(gwl …)”.
I like this change. So the new modules would be:
(gwl processes) and (gwl workflows)
Could we keep (guix processes) and (guix workflows) for backwards
compatibility? At least for now, so we don't break existing workflows
right away.
On a related note: I can never remember if a procedure is defined in
“(gnu workflows)” or “(guix workflows)”. Do you have a mnemonic? Is
this separation necessary or would it be fine to rearrange things?
It's fine to rearrange things. I mimic'd the modules for Guix's
packages ((guix packages) and (gnu packages)).
Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
