Will do!

I'm definitely interested in getting the distro bootable in general. What
are the remaining roadblocks for this issue? What remaining tools need to
be added? And the question for me: are there good, purely-functional
implementations of these tools we can look at?

That's a fair question. I suppose I don't much know -- the Summer of Code
ideas site listed "package window manager" as one of the projects, so I
assumed there was a lot to be done. Maybe that's more about packaging the
dependencies of the larger projects.

The project would be about extending the Guix distribution with more Guile
projects - it would not, admittedly, involving much work on the actual Guix
package manager, though I'm not against doing work on that.
