Awesome.  Thanks for giving Guix such good promotion!

Yes, I was happy to see 'ruby-rspec' in the native inputs.

Great!  I think you should mention 'guix import gem' because it
calculates the gem archive's hash for you and generates a basic
package expression, giving newcomers a better starting point to tweak
from.

Can you send an updated patch for bio-locus?  Thanks!
