Many thanks for the in-depth review, as always. I fixed all your
comments. I also hope it will help people dive into the image creation
stuff.

The two big remaining areas left to be a credible alternative to
buildroot/Yocto and friends are in my opinion:

1. Be able to generate smaller images (without Guix/Guile), with
other init systems (initV, android init language), busybox, minimal
libc and so on.

2. Be able to cross-compile more packages (qt, gnome, ...).

Some work in perspective!

Mathieu
