This all sounds very good and manageable.  I think this also matches
some of the open items that Gábor identified earlier.

Excellent!

Yes, this would be fine, but note that the document should really stand
on its own.  Whatever is shown on https://berlin.guixsd.org/ will change
over time.  You can add a link to it as an example, but make sure that
your “work product” page would not feel incomplete without it.
(E.g. take screenshots if you want to show specific features instead of
linking to pages on https://berlin.guixsd.org/)

If you want to we could also aim to publish this as a blog post on the
Guix website, but that’s really up to you.  The Guix blog is a good way
to make your work known in the community and to people who are following
the project.
