Hello Guix!

Commit cd436bf05a8344acf4462f3602e7d360821a902a allows source tarballs
to be fetched from content-addressed mirrors, such as tarballs.nixos.org
(I expect other mirrors will be added soon.)

By default, URLs of the style http://tarballs.nixos.org/sha256/XYZ are
automatically appended to the list of URLs that’s explicitly specified.

This is a really cool feature!

It would be nice to have ‘guix publish’ publish such URLs, but there’s
currently no RPC to query a store item by hash.

Alternately, we could have a tool that produces the files to be
published statically (by traversing the package DAG and collecting
‘origin’s, for instance.)
