Hello all,
My name is Shivam Madlani aiming for GSoC'23, and I am particularly
interested in The Guix project. I took a look at the project idea and
installed a fresh version of Guix on a VM and started playing around in it.
I have a few questions regarding the project which I think you guys can
help me with:

1) The project title states "decentralized"... which i don't get. How
exactly is it decentralized? Similar to a P2P file sharing tech or
something else (BitTorrent)?
2) As per the project idea I interpreted that the technologies involved
would be c/c++, shell and a bit of networking. Is this correct or am I
missing something?
3) What would be the duration of the project? (175hrs/350hrs).

Thank you all and I hope to hear from you soon. :)

Regards
