Looks great!  Does the guix-artwork repository contain the "horizontal"
version that is currently published on the website?  I couldn't find it.

I've also noticed that the Wikipedia article is still using the other
logo.  I attempted to update it, but because I don't have an account, I
wasn't able to replace the SVG file with the new one.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guix

I don't suppose someone on this thread can fix the Wikipedia article?
If not, I'll try again once the 10-day "autoconfirm" period of
restricted access for new Wikipedia accounts passes.

FWIW, there also appears to be a copy of the logo in Wikimedia commons:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Guix-logo.svg

I tried to update this one, too, but the Wikimedia uploader rejected the
SVG files as "corrupt".
