I never heard about it before, but to me it looks quite promising. According to their timeline a public beta will be released in August 2019. Before there seem to be some (closed) alpha and beta versions. Their team consists of 9 Members[1], which is pretty impressive. They also develop an ARM based Mini-Computer called "Panther Alpha"[2]. Though I couldn't find any of the team members in some Guix commits or patches...
