Thanks for this FAQ. I agree it would be a nice addition to the manual.
I like many of your points. The points I would not put however are those that
are likely to change sooner or later, for instance
> * Any stable ones available yet?
> * No, not known to us.
Besides, regarding
> * Is package X available?
> * Maybe! Take a look at the package list of the website or search our git-repo
> for the name.
I believe this is an important pointer to new comers (e.g. "I will only consider
switching to GuixSD if X and Y are packaged"), so we need a link here.
The official home page has https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/ which is
a rather poor interface in my opinion.
So I would like to the much more convenient
https://guix-hpc.bordeaux.inria.fr/browse instead.
