The GNU project's goal is to develop a free operating system.  Like
the majority of other free programs its development never ends before
people's need.

Programs don't have goals by themselves; people developing them do.
It's correct to say that one of the main goals of the Guix team is to
make a GNU distribution.  GNU Guix isn't a distribution, however: it's
a packager manager.  Please, think clearly --- don't conflate related
but distinct things.

You are unnecessarily dramatic.  Have I offended you?  To hold a point
different of yours and to point out some of your errors is not
trolling.  As I see it, you should be more rational, and take
constructive critics into consideration.

How about you stop threatening me?  Are you willing to use your
privileged position and abuse of your power, just because I don't
agree with you?  That's ridiculous.
