I agree. It=E2=80=99s great that some of us are so passionate about Emacs = (and I=E2=80=99m certainly one of them), but I think we should make sure not to spread the idea that one *has* to master Emacs to contribute to Guix. Quite a few long-time contributors do not use Emacs; the tooling (=E2=80=98= guix edit=E2=80=99, =E2=80=98guix refresh=E2=80=99, =E2=80=98guix style=E2=80=99= ) is also there to provide a good experience whether or not one uses Emacs.
