Hi Maxim, Quick comments…

This point was amended already to not be blanket: it mentions the specific use of authoring leaving the door open to using an LLM for exploration or similar activities, as Christine and others suggested. Please double-check if you think the wording is ambiguous. > About the third (3) pledge point: it's trying to police on a basis > different than "is it free software?" which reminds me of the ethical > licenses […] Yeah, I see where you’re coming from, and I too would rather avoid this situation. In fact, as it stands, fully vibe-coded software like Claude’s C Compiler cannot be considered free software; this will probably be clarified one way or another in the various jurisdictions, but that’s where we are today. Perhaps making it explicit along the following lines would help? 3. Software where most of the code was authored or co-authored by genAI cannot be considered free software as of this writing, and thus **will not be packaged in Guix**. Notable examples of such code include [Claude’s C compiler](https://github.com/anthropics/claudes-c-compiler/), [EmDash](https://github.com/emdash-cms/emdash), and [Neomacs](https://github.com/eval-exec/neomacs). Thanks for your feedback, Ludo’.
