It's been mostly you here Chris, thank you so much for writing it, as
others said, it is really beautifully written! Unfortunately I havent
felt enough peace of mind to write like you did :-(

I would've liked to write about the early days where I met some
problems with the core-updates branch having to rebase several times
and learning GNU Guix at the same time since my first ever project
related to GNU Guix was porting before even trying to use it elsewhere.
Having to learn the GNU commit message guidelines, then learning git-
send-email and GNU Emacs (since that's where all dev tools are), all
that to contribute to GNU Guix and get this port in. Aaaahh very long
story!
