Re: Contribute or create a channel?

> WDYT? I'm eager to learn about your thoughts.


the patch inflow to the guix repo is currently overwhelming the available 
capacity for review and pushing.

if you want an agile experience, i.e. where you can quickly fix/update this and 
that, then i suggest your own channel (unless you have the commit bit for the 
guix repo... or there's a committed maintainer who is a regular user, and as 
such will fast-track your patches).

otherwise you'll end up using a channel anyway (i.e. your fork of the guix repo 
while your patches are waiting in the queue to be reviewed and pushed).

PS: i don't mean to sound cynical here, just matter-of-factly.
