About the channel information to include in a published paper, yeah
Skribilo/Guix is one (non-straightforwardly?) way to get “guix describe
-f channels”. ;-)

Is it possible to have a Skribilo reader which would use less
parenthesis?  Similar to Racket Scribble?

Well, if I understand correctly, «the context of reproducible research
workflows» somehow means using Skribilo as authoring system for
producing “active papers“, right?

PS: About the name/version pairs, are we not trying to explain at length
that it is the wrong way to obtain reproducibility?  Aside it is not
clear what is the depth of name/version pairs to provide when speaking
about reproducibility, no?
