Hi there, João Augusto! I live and work in Goiânia, and it made me very happy to know that you're considering creating a Guix mirror in our country! I'm not an IT guy, but I'm a GNU enthusiast and love the clarity its config structure in Guile — I don't master it yet, but it embodies what I understand to be the ideal programming philosophy: side-effect isolation from logic, separation of concerns, modularity, avoidance of duplication… Of course you know all that, but my purpose here, as a non-tech engaged user, is to encourage you strongly: do go on with this project! Please help disseminate Guix in Brazil!
