Sure, I agree this is a worthwhile goal.  If you haven’t already, check
out the GSoC by Rémy Birot-Delrue on this topic a couple of years ago:

  https://gnu.org/software/guix/news/gsoc-update.html

Rémy ended up with Guile bindings for GNUnet, along with a
proof-of-concept publish and substitute process using GNUnet:

I know ng0 is very interested in this as well.  I’d love to work in this
area!
