Dispatches from a Rewrite in Progress.

You have arrived, dear reader, at the public bulletin of a modestly ambitious enterprise: the reimplementation of a very large piece of digital-health software and its attendant moral obligations, in a programming language called Go and with a Python contingent on the side, because the committee was unable to decide on only one. I propose to write about this undertaking whenever it furnishes something worth telling you about, and no more often than that. I undertake, in addition, to be funny whenever the subject will suffer it, and silent whenever it will not.
