  Description     : Wayland desktop dock customizable with GNU Guile Scheme

Lambdock is a Wayland-native desktop dock built with GTK4 and
gtk4-layer-shell.  It features dynamic window tracking using the Wayland
foreign toplevel management protocol, customizable CSS theming, fluid slide-out
auto-hiding, multi-monitor placement, and an embedded GNU Guile Scheme engine
for live configuration, extensibility, and REPL interaction.

This package will be useful for people using Wayland compositors, window
managers,
also Plasma desktop, etc. Other packages like Plank or Cairo Dock provide
similar
functionalities, but don't have the same extensibility and configurability
as lambdock, as well as the power of having a REPL with GNU Guile Scheme.

As for maintaining the Debian package, I plan to personally do this, although
since
I am more of a GNU Guix user, I would extremely appreciate a sponsor and help,
as this is my first time upstreaming a package to Debian.
