Sincere apologies for disrupting and/or distracting. I understand the problem. (After all, I'm doing it to myself: It takes me much longer to write than it does to read ;-p ) So, off-topic replies being a problem. naturally I am triggered to think about this problem, and I am tempted to post ideas about automatically diverting off-topic reply posts to guix-offto...@gnu.org and and automatically only posting references thereto to recipients who would otherwise get the whole thing. But beyond the above, I will restrain myself ;-) Sorry about this off-original-topic post. I guess it is like social distancing to avoid infecting people with distractions ;-/ I will try to practice better hygiene :) -- Regards, Bengt Richter
