Nice work!

Would be great to have it integrated in ‘guix import’.  Did you look at
the other importers in guix/import/*.scm?  Hopefully it should be simple
enough to do the same within this framework, even without being a
die-hard Schemer ;-), and it would be readily available to all of Guix.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
