As the README explains, "statebox is a data structure you can use with an eventually consistent system such as Riak to resolve conflicts between siblings in a deterministic manner." * On GitHub here ---> https://github.com/mochi/statebox Thanks, Bob! 3) Jean-Baptiste Barth (@jbbarth) wrote another great blog post on Riak.
