Thanks for the encouragement Nagaev :) Yes I am very aware of Tom van der Woerdt's previous work, and I am attempting to avoid some of the problems he faced. This implementation is pure Go, so I will not have cgo-based issues at least.
As I said the project is still far from complete. It implements a minimal subset of the protocol. But I'd like to learn by handling real traffic as soon as I can.
