Hi Zack,
First off, really great work on Echelon! I work on similar data problems at
opencorporates.com (who are partly funded by sunlight) and it's great to see
instaparse and clojure being used in this way. I'm looking forward to trying it
out myself.
I just wanted to suggest that although
One issue we've been having is that we are using Datomic in a non standard
way (I think). We're touching all the data all at once for some resolution
steps and Datomic wasn't necessarily made for that (at least that has been
my impression). I've been trying to understand the Datomic query system
Very interesting project! (and congrats on joining SunlightLabs)
As someone who has, on occasion, contributed to various SunlightLabs foundation
projects, my only question would be: what do you need help with?
I understand completely if this project is not at a point where you’re looking

It's a shame your talk wasn't accepted - that looks fascinating and I would
have loved to see it. Please let us know when you do your technical
write-up!

in the next year I'll try again and give a talk at a conference about all
the weird stuff ECHELON can do. Like, it only took the better part of an

That's really neat. Planning on giving a talk?
