There is no space separator for Chinese words.  Typesetting of CJK
languages is always a headache for FLOSS developers.

Thank you for the work.  I have found only one such case in the Guix
manual, so that's fine.  I can manually translate this @pxref.

This is really great!  Thank you so much for seeing the videos through
to completion.  It’s very exciting to have such high-quality materials
available to the community.  :)

I have one little suggestion.  The part where Paul reads the URL feels
very slow to me.  I think it could be a touch faster without losing any
clarity, and that speeding it up a bit would improve the rhythm of the
video.  That being said, I am a native English speaker, so maybe the
slower pace is helpful for those who don’t normally speak English.  How
hard is it to change?  What do others think?

Otherwise, it’s awesome.  Thanks again!

There is also no https://audio-video.gnu.org/guix/

I presume that has indeed not been set up yet?
I also tried it without the trailing slash.

The video is great but the introductory videos link 
(https://audio.video.gnu.org) seems to lead to nowhere. Has it not been set up?

Thank you so much for working on this!

Also thanks for Paul, some subtle bugs could have been fixed much later
without you help, Your knowledge regarding videos is much appreciated.

I will have a look at them as soon as I can.

Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!

Wow! I want to see these topics:
- disk partitioning on guix system installation (manual lacks detailed info)
- how to learn guile
- how to get rid with configuration file
- how actually read guix errors and where to look for more info (I really had 
not learnt this yet)
- config.scm examples for xfce, gnome, wpa-supplicant, touchpad, keyboards, 
multi-users, samba service, postgresql service, web-server and so on
- how to configure kernel or use own kernel in guix.

Do you want to discuss such content with somebody?

Hi Guix!

I have created the site: https://archive.org/details/guix-videos
where I will be pushing  the documentation videos that I created
during my internship and that Paul helped a a lot sharing their voice
and knowledge about video creation to enhance them.

I appreciate feedback :)

Fine! I have already created an account. I am arranging cli session
files / svg files to adapt them to the new release and seeing if I can
improve the timings. Will be uploading the videos ASAP.

Re: GNU Guix 1.0.1 released

[Dan Frumin]

Hi Ludovic,

Congratulations on the release.

Perhaps someone can update the website  or 

which still has a DOWNLOAD 1.0.0 button.

On a related note, how come there are two versions of the official Guix website?
- http://gnu.org/s/guix (this one seems to be the most recent/updated one)
- http://guix.info or http://guix.gnu.org (this one seems to lag behind)

Is it possible to unify them somehow, perhaps? It would be less confusing for 
people searching
for Guix on Google or DuckDuckGo.

Best,
-Dan

We are pleased to announce the release of GNU Guix 1.0.1.

This is a bug-fix release primarily addressing one major issue in the

• About

   GNU Guix is a transactional package manager and an advanced
   distribution of the GNU system that respects user freedom.  Guix can
   be used on top of any system running the kernel Linux, or it can be
   used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686, x86_64,
   ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.

   In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports
   transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package
   management, per-user profiles, and garbage collection.  When used as a
   standalone GNU/Linux distribution, Guix offers a declarative,
   stateless approach to operating system configuration management.  Guix
   is highly customizable and hackable through Guile programming
   interfaces and extensions to the Scheme language.
