I also can't really take this seriously. Maybe I'm ignorant of something to the Go ecosystem that makes this relevant, but this seems truly bizarre. The "answer" microservice says: "Instant answers to any question" / "Ask a question and get an instant answer". Okay? Like, is this a service that I would have to back with my own knowledgebase? In which case this is just a service that accepts questions and serves answers? Why would this need its own service then? The "address" microservice says: "Lookup UK addresses by postcode. Simply provide a valid postcode and get a full list of addresses". Why is this not called "uk-address" then? Or can it be modified for arbitrary locations? Does it handle when new addresses are created? Can it do validation? How much demand is there for a "joke" microservice? And I think it shows a lack of professio

Hey, I have a non-comprehensive list of issues for new services https://github.com/micro/services/issues but most of the bugs/features are still in my head for other stuff. I think purely on the DB front we need to add a new Query endpoint that's more powerful that will accept a repeated array for Filter options that look like the below. message QueryRequest { repeated Filter filters = 1; } message QueryResponse { repeated Record records = 1; } message Filter { string field = 1; string op = 2; string value = 3; } Something like that. I think otherwise a majority of issues really become clear through use, so those using the services tend to see where the pitfalls are or where they can contribute. It's harder to do that without context and arguably less enjoyable for the person contributing as they're not seeing that change in
