Hi!

The NixOS release notes at
<http://nixos.org/releases/nixos/16.03-small/nixos-16.03.488.ecf6ca4/manual=
/release-notes.html>
mention that all the ELPA and MELPA packages are now available, which
suggests that a fully automated translation works OK (although metadata
is largely incomplete at
<https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/editors/ema=
cs-modes/elpa-generated.nix>.)

Hence the random thought of the day: Should we try a mass import?

Maybe we should change =E2=80=98guix import REPO=E2=80=99 to import all of =
REPO, where
applicable?
