This is such a weird thing to do.
Are they going to take pull requests? Or will they just publish a read-only code dump?
Will they include Git history? If not, how will anyone hope to understand the code that Twitter engineers themselves apparently don’t understand?
Also are they publishing the spam detection algorithms? That’s implicitly part of the recommendation system, but I bet it’s a separate service.
