FYI, while Basho is dead, their assets were picked up by bet365, a UK-based gambling company that, like some other similar companies, uses Erlang extensively. Riak MDC -- i.e. the Multi-datacenter replication piece, the closed-source bit that Basho made its money from -- was open-sourced and development of Riak continues. BTW, basho.com, and most of the stuff that had been on it, is online (I think bet365 resurrected it as part of their asset-purchase).
