That's really cool.  Would you please share your configuration files?
I'd love to see what that looks like.

Yes, we should have our own tool for this purpose that has excellent
integration with the rest of the system.

The only configuration we'd apply is a full system configuration, a la
'guix system reconfigure'.

I should create a "wip-deploy" branch in our git repository that you
could submit patches for.  I need to do a bit more work to get the very
basics working so we have a foundation to build on, though.

The other emails in this thread detail my basic strategy.  Here's an
example of a 'guix deploy' config that actually works right now:

I'm happy to discuss this more and figure out how to get you involved!
Thanks for expressing your interest.
