Hi,
a...@gnu.org (Alfred M. Szmidt) skribis:
What is the difference between guix and nixos?
Guix is a package manager similar to Nix, and it comes with the
beginning of a small user-land software distro (like Nixpkgs).
However, Guix and its distro are written in Guile Scheme, whereas
Nixpkgs and NixOS are written in a mixture of the Nix language and Bash
scripts.
Also, the projects are independently managed. Guix is GPLv3+, whereas
Nix is LGPLv2+ and Nixpkgs is MIT/X11.
My goal is to eventually submit Guix and the Guix-based distro as
GNU projects, with the hope that we can build a GNU distribution that is
100% free software and technically more attractive than the alternatives.
This is very interesting. Sustainability?

Nice. Audio?
