> Porting all of Discourse to another platform like say golang. Another multiple year project.

@sam by mentioning that this would be a multi-year project, I assume you have no intention of porting Discourse from Ruby to Go, but since you mentioned Go I’m curious if you think it would have been a better choice than Ruby. I’m wondering if you’ve done any small porting experiments. Or maybe you’re really just mentioning Go in passing. It’s hard to tell from your quick comment. Anyway, I’d be curious to hear more of your thoughts on this.
