gollark: https://github.com/osmarks/skynet/blob/master/PROTOCOL.mdMuch simpler. Kind of. Okay, roughly the same.
gollark: Anyway, it has a simplified protocol, is rewritten in Rust for speed and reliability, is missing logs (couldn't be bothered to add them...) and is otherwise identical.

gollark: I have no idea. A given commit?
