'The work, Inspeqtor which is hosted at GitHub, is far from a “clean-room” implementation. This is basically a rewrite of Monit in Go, even using the same configuration language that is used in Monit, verbatim.

a. [private] himself admits that Inspeqtor is "heavily influenced“ by Monit https://github.com/mperham/inspeqtor/wiki/Other-Solutions.

b. This tweet by [private] demonstrate intent. https://twitter.com/mperham/status/452160352940064768 "OSS nerds: redesign and build monit in Go. Sell it commercially. Make $$$$. I will be your first customer.”'

IANAL, but using the same config language does not demonstrate copyright infringement...

This looks really nice -- it's quite similar to something I was hacking on a while back. Only problem is that it's AGPL-licensed...

'Pushpin makes it easy to create HTTP long-polling and streaming services using any web stack as the backend. It’s compatible with any framework, whether Django, Rails, ASP, or even PHP. Pushpin works as a reverse proxy, sitting in front of your server application and managing all of the open client connections.'

Canonical _finally_ open source (under the AGPL) their bug tracker/project hosting platform. yay! here's hoping it's reasonably easy to deploy. maybe it would be viable for the ASF... hmm
