Hi Simon,

Yes, the community0p server crashed this morning.  Luckily, Debbugs
appears to be back online and added messages I sent during the outage.
Maybe yours will get there, too.

Thank you!  Do you see a chance we can amend the patch so I can block
such package definitions from being used by 'guix deploy', 'guix system
reconfigure' and 'guix home reconfigure'?

The new field looks to me like an amendment of the license terms,
especially if the field was added by the author pursuant to the
objections raised in this thread.  I would rather not pollute my systems
with potentially unfree software.

Also, for all the controversy surrounding LLMs, which I read with great
interest, SHW still provides a valuable service by making sure the
sources I depend upon to configure my systems do not disappear.  Due to
my custom patches, I regularly bootstrap Guix.  I cannot be caught in a
situation from which I cannot recover.

Kind regards
Felix
