Ok.  Maybe it is better.

You mean add one sentence in the header of:

   <http://guix.gnu.org/en/packages/>

right?

I do not understand this last statement.  The website guix.gnu.org is
"Libre Only"; because it is GNU.  Therefore, the channels will be
FSDG-compliant packages only (often variants) and other channels
(often named 'nonfree') will be not listed here.  For example, even on
hpc.guix.info which is more permissive, nonfree channels contributed
by Ludo and/or Ricardo) about specific HPC tools are not listed
overthere.  What do you have in mind about "Open Source with
non-free"?

All the best,
