That seems like a worthy goal, but an argument in favor of the status quo would be that NixOS has not yet reached a number of users that would make it compelling to have separate repositories. ;-) (And I would understand if TU Delft folks would be reluctant to carrying out such administrative tasks.) > 2) nix should handle updating of the repository tree, i.e. it should be > transparent to the user not requiring from him/her to do 'svn up'. Agreed. But again, ATM, (almost) all NixOS users are committers. ;-) And there's `nixos-checkout'. > 3) more user-friendly & configurable installer so that user can quickly > gt up in X with a working system Well, everyone would like it, but contributors are rare.
