Yep, in my opinion, that is the right amount of information.

Yep, I think something like the following should just work, but I
haven't tested it yet.
(service tailon-service-type
(tailon-configuration
(config-file (local-file "../tailon.yml"))))
I bring this up, as I think it is great if this is a feature of all
services, I'm having trouble though working out how you might do that
in this case, with the use of values in the activation service
extension. I can see complicated approaches, but nothing simple and
clear enough.
