I like Guix logo (I did sticker and paste in my computers :) and I think that should not change, but maybe to GuixSD could change or not. I like
for idea to universal Guix logo to "package manager" and "OS". What do
you think about name GuixOS?

Thanks,

If GuixSD is the final name for the distro, I attached a logo to replace
the one currently used on the List of Free GNU/Linux Distributions. If
not, tell me and I'll make any necessary changes.
I like it, simple, representative and beautiful.
