Sorry, I did not imply that people I talked to meant github or
other free/proprietary solutions similar to it.
So far I provide outside of freenode.net and outside of Email
federation help and support to a small number of people at
psyced.org (and also offer to proxy works via myself for people
who can not deal with the ways you can participate in Guix).

What I really mean will only be clear once I write a thought out
text about it. I currently can not focus on this and don't want
to participate in a half hearted discussion based on
assumptions/interpretations.
An Email vs Github discussion is not even close to what my
intentions are.

thanks,
