Interesting talk, and thanks for answering my probing questions about why you chose Go over Haskell. I can't say I agree with them, I'm afraid :)

@Fraser As I said, I still think Haskell is a superior language and everyone should learn it, even if just to make them a better programmer in whatever language they choose/have to work in day to day. I also didn't make it clear during the preso that we'll probably end up being a polyglot organisation too. There are aspects of BagsUp that would probably lend themselves quite nicely to Haskell. Plus I keep cajoling Richard into letting us do some Haskell at LiteracyPlanet too!
