I was off duty at dayjob cause of covid partial unemployment last week,
that's why I got more time to work on guix. I have resumed work this
week so it explains the slowdown ;-)

The plan is that I'll continue working on this series to polish the
commit messages that need to be. I just wanted to send the series to
have the ACKs that it will not be lost work, before continuing.

I've got ACKs, so I'll work on finishing the pending patches, before
embarking on more TODO items. And doc is one item from that TODO list.
I'll put it on top.

But even if dev speed is lower, I'm committed to finish this.
