Hello Guix,

Since the use of the =E2=80=98static-web-site=E2=80=99 service, which puts =
web site
files in the store, nginx returns a =E2=80=98Last-Modified=E2=80=99 header =
that can
trick clients into caching things forever:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ wget --debug -O /dev/null   https://guix.gnu.org/packages.json 2>&1 | gre=
p Last
Last-Modified: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

We should tell nginx to do not emit =E2=80=98Last-Modified=E2=80=99, or to =
take the
state from the /srv/guix.gnu.org symlink, if possible.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
