To me the top priority would be to fix the ‘emacs-guix’ package in Guix,
either by adding a patch, grabbing a Git snapshot, or using an older
Geiser version.

Tagging an Emacs-Guix release would also be an option, once you’ve
clarified with Alex Kost and everyone involved that it’s OK for you to
do so.

I’ve requested the creation of a Git repo at Savannah.  Again, if and
once everyone involved is OK with the move, you can move the repo
there.  In the meantime you can obviously use a copy hosted elsewhere.

And then, you’ll probably have to recruit among the fearless and
creative Emacs hackers lurking here.  :-)
