One more note: dat's implementation is quite modular, the hyper* libraries are designed to be replicated in a network-agnostic way.

(Theoretically you can do this with IPFS too, but I love how dat is implemented!)

I'm trying to get a foothold in this space (this space being whatever the area of camlistore/perkeep - ipfs - dat - etc.

I've also been excited that Dat seems to be investing a Rust implementation that would presumably make Dat accessible from any language that can interoperate with C/Rust.

Yeah, I'm keeping an eye on the rust implementation of hyperdb!
