I'm quite star stuck. Thank you for showcasing Andrew Tropin's rde project. I believe the =3Dfeatures=3D abstraction have potential and make more intuitive sense for the design of configurable programs. There is a lot for me to learn from this design choice. As it stands, =3Dfeatures=3D are not in Guix proper, are there plans to merge them? How will they end up relating to the existing home services feature set?
