So this sounds like it is mostly concerned with the derivation part. Is it going to be based on Nickel then, or a new custom parser? Would be interested in the rationale there

No, we are writing an implementation of the Nix language. Nixpkgs is written in Nix and we believe that's the most important part of the ecosystem, so Tvix will support it.
