This is just documentation, not a project with any implementation. The last commit was six months ago.

It's extremely hard to develop serverless/decentralized applications without writing and deploying code as you go. Usually there's some incentives/spam/DoS problem that you didn't consider; sometimes fatally so.

Yes, it's still really early in this project, I just linked it because I found the ideas interesting in their own right.

I did see some indications that more work might get done on it soon, though. We'll see if that materializes or not.
