That’s an interesting idea. Another alternative, perhaps, could be
having a “news” or “breaking changes” section/topic on the Guix blog,
ideally with a dedicated atom feed, where one could follow changes with
drastic change in system and/or package behaviour, or ones potentially
requiring a manual intervention of sorts. Both Parabola and Hyperbola
have that section on their website, with latest news shown on the front
page.
Thoughts?
Best,
amin
