Subject: [bug#37413] [PATCH v2 00/11] Channel news distribution mechanism
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2019 23:12:17 +0200

Hello!

Here’s an updated version that addresses some of the issues that
were raised and some of those that weren’t even raised.

Changes compared to v1:

  • If the news format version is incompatible, silently ignore it
    instead of raising an error.

  • Language tags in the news file are now symbols instead of
    strings.  Thus, xgettext can readily be used:

       xgettext -ken -l scheme etc/news.scm

  • News entries can refer to a tag instead of a commit, as suggested
    by Ricardo.

  • ‘guix pull’ shows news titles when there are news.  (In v1 you’d
    have to explicitly run ‘guix pull --news’ to see if there are
    news.)

Thoughts?

I’ll go with that if there are no objections.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
