I think it would be better to put home services in the same modules as
system services, i.e., (gnu services mcron) would contain the Mcron
service for Guix System and the Mcron service for Guix Home. That would
also mean that we wouldn’t have to export ‘job-files’ and
‘shepherd-schedule-action’[1].
I think using (gnu home services …) would only make sense if we already
had (gnu system services …).
WDYT?
