This might be interesting to look at: nest over xmpp. Sorry, it’s in french, but a pijul backend for this xmpp-backed nest-like could be cool. It’s also probably worthwhile checking if the nest can be federated with that system.
As a side remark, I was recently investigated the ActivityPub federation protocol, to see if it can be used by the nest.

In case anyone is/will be working on this: Are you aware of https://sourcehut.org/? It is a git/hg forge built around mailing lists and using the integrated email workflow features (see also https://drewdevault.com/2018/07/23/Git-is-already-distributed.html).
I don’t know any details, but if pijul could render patches to and import them from emails, I would think, a pijul integration should probably not be too difficult.
I personally would love to see something happen between sourcehut and pijul, but I suspect there might be more work than one might expect to make the user experience great.
