The future will be better. :-)
Even some details need to be discussed: frequency of source.json
generation, frequency of the SWH crawler ingest it, etc.

How could all the archives living in ci.guix.gnu.org be sent to SWH?
Because IMHO the of Berlin (or other) is to archive the world but to
build it. :-)


Cheers,
