It surely is interesting. The current state of helper is due to the fact that it was written for embedded/low powered devices running Linux. OpenWrt doesn't cross-compile Go as of now, so we had to go for Perl. It is good enough for low request proxies at small offices. We are modifying it as per recommendations by Amos and will check-in the updated code soon. >I am willing to take my time and write the code for you. So.. Glad to know about your willingness to write it in Go. It will help the community at large to run it on more powerful machines that serve a lot of requests. Another version of helper that we are writing will use memcached on local proxy to cache the access granted from the cloud server and will greatly increase the speed.
