I agree with zimbatm. I find the GUIX posts very topical and heavily geared towards my perceived notion of this mailing-list's mission (although I'm currently just lurking to hone my Nix).
I admit that I have not looked into fractalide, which could very much be topical, however some form of guidelines would be helpful especially in case a future deluge of "Hey look what I did with Nix!!!" posts set precedent for a less-than-focused community. No comment on the fractalide matter though, I do not understand the situation quite as well as others here.
