[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hello Noé Lopez,

thanks for pushing this idea forward!  I think that the RFC process will
help to track all the major initiatives in GNU Guix -- present and
future ones.

I know that there are several long-term big projects inside Guix, namely
Guile daemon, distributed substitutes and maybe more.  In my view the
problem is that the information about those projects is buried in the
Git branches and E-Mail discussions.  Maybe RFCs in the well-known place
inside the repository will help developers to see what the community at
large is up to.

To my taste, as for Emacs user, the plain old org-mode format is good
enough to write RFCs, but that's no more than a preference.  Many people
using Markdown nowadays so maybe it will help to make the RFC process
more friendly for newcomers.
