Steap suggested on IRC to start developing a GUI for the package manager,
isn't that a good project? Students could use it to get familiar with Guix
and free software development. That project would also give you autonomy;
you will still need to communicate with Guix developers, but you will be
able to use your own project management system, repository, conventions,
etc.

In eight months I would not expect a "version 1.0" software from
inexperienced students, though. I think the results should be guessed by
you and the mentors from the university based on your experience and the
experience of the students in free software development and tools.
