I got your patches the day you sent them, but have been rather busy and have inadvertently put them off and forget they existed. Woops! My apologies. I have Cc'ed Amin Bandali as we are both co-proposers for the formal methods working group. These type checking and safety systems are obviously very important to the formal methods community and software developers unaware of the nice guarantees offered by them. So i'd like to see this get added and in shape regardless of if the Guix maintainers "approve" our working group proposal. Thank you for sharing this. I will take another look at it soon and let you know what I find. :) -- Brett M. Gilio GNU Guix, Contributor | GNU Project, Webmaster [DFC0 C7F7 9EE6 0CA7 AE55 5E19 6722 43C4 A03F 0EEE]
