Oh my god... the demo of the servo rendering engine during the last two minutes was absolutely mind blowing and HE JUST SKIMMED OVER IT LIKE NOTHING. InfoQ people please get a servo dev present... I'm so surprised they are that far along with something as amazing as what servo strives to be and it was a wonderful surprise to see its progress here.
