Hi guys.

Sorry for the large break from posting. Barrie and I have been too busy on some massive deadlines. Well... thats related to our good news!

We have two large commercial projects launching which leverage Silk as a core part of their architecture, (along with a little something else that is not ready to share yet).

We've done some work for Hitachi, and for a global freight company who will be putting our work in the hands of Amazon. Silk has worked out really nicely in both cases, and there has been some positive feedback, and the possibility of getting another team up and running on it.

The technical news is that there is a youngish effort underway to get Silk simplified, stripped down, and ported to Clojure for a more efficient codebase.
