We have 2 projects:

• https://github.com/alphagov/backdrop which is the current Python API for the Performance Platform. It's a couple of Flask apps.
• https://github.com/alphagov/performance-datastore which is a Go implementation of part of that API, plus a sketching area for me to define how I think the read API should look. It is currently a single Go binary, which supports zero-downtime redeployments via upstart.

https://github.com/alphagov/backdrop/tree/master/backdrop/write implements the existing write API.

The Go version is virtually identical on a feature basis, except it's faster :)

It has been a bit horrifying to watch the BitKeeper saga unfold. Not that it's surprising of course that Larry rescinded the BK Linux license; if you know Larry or even know of him, you know that Larry's tragic flaws -- hypersensitivity, volatility and vindictiveness -- made this an inevitability of sorts1. So the horrifying bit has not been the act itself, but rather the specific reason that Larry cited when rescinding the license: he seems to have taken issue with Tridge's attempt to reverse engineer the BitKeeper protocols. This rankles; I (like many engineers, I suspect) view reverse engineering as a Natural Right. That is, I believe that we are endowed with certain unalienable Rights, and that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Understanding how the hell something works (or doesn't, as is frequently the case). Perhaps perversely to some, it is my strong belief in the right to reverse engineer that lea
