Seems like they've been involved in transpiling C projects, like TCK, to Go.

Oh, seems like this is made by CZNIC, the org that admins .cz TLD.
They've also done the Omnia Turris routers, KNOT DNS server or BIRD routing daemon...

- exikyut 2y agoHuh. I once read drh note that no-one had ever bought any copies of TH3. I'm not sure what that does or doesn't say. But I would hope this is using TH3 in the development pipeline! If it's a direct port, the branch coverage should be constructively similar so as to be just as effective a test as for the C version.
- kunley 2y agoYeah this gentleman is Jan Mercl and is quite known in the Go community. I think his most known project is the sqlite driver in pure Go, as opposed to mattn's driver. Modernc.org is kind of umbrella of his projects.
