I’m not sure what “personal” means in this case.

Anyway, the situation is confusing; there’s no point in having two
slightly different variants.  I suggest we check with Alex off-list to
get a better understanding of what they want.  Worst case, we can
cherry-pick commits from Alex’s copy if Alex doesn’t want to be involved
in discussions around Emacs-Guix or Guix development.

Thanks for the heads-up!
