Guix is implemented in Scheme. Julia uses Scheme as its parser. All the ideas of Guix mentioned in the above quote appear in line with those of Julia.
I don't know if Pkg3 should be "like Guix", but I happen to be using, and interested in the development of, both Julia and Guix. I wanted to be sure that all Pkg3 designers are well aware of Guix/Nix and possibly can use ideas/features (and maybe code) from the Guix project, or even collaborate.
