It=E2=80=99s definitely time for this, and I agree with the =E2=80=9C1.1=E2= =80=9D number, FWIW. :-) However, I would really want to have good automated tests of the installer before this happens: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-01/msg00225.html Likewise, if someone could come up with a test for the binary tarball installation on top of, say, Debian, that=E2=80=99d be great! (Probably no= t a blocker, but still helpful in giving more confidence about the release.) Surely this could be done in QEMU with a dummy HTTP(S) proxy. I=E2=80=99m sure there are other issues in the bug tracker that=E2=80=99d b= e worth addressing. Help welcome! Ludo=E2=80=99.
