Thanks for the summary on current situation. I agree with you, and have
nothing against. But I have a doubt.

In "22.8.3 Version Numbers", we state that "Occasionally, we package
snapshots of upstream’s version control system (VCS) instead of formal
releases. This should remain exceptional, because it is up to upstream
developers to clarify what the stable release is"

So, what exactly is a packager of guix expected to package, from guix
point of view ?
