ANNOUNCEMENT: New Relay Software called Chorus

"Here ye, here ye, the herald hath proclaimed that a wizened old mage from the beige tower to the South hath bestoweth upon our land yet another relay implementation of potential great import and with great anticipation. And the people rose up in song and in praise of this new relay software. And the people called it "Chorus" for it had inspired them to sing." - 1st Abominations 13:37

Chorus is a new nostr relay software implementation, brought to you by the same guy that brought you the Gossip client.

Interviewer: Why did you write chorus?
Me: I don't know.

Interviewer: Why should somebody run chorus as opposed to another relay implementation?
Me: I don't know.

Interviewer: Have you even thoroughly tested this relay yet before announcing it?
Me: Um....

Interviewer: Do you even use it yourself?
Me: Not as such. Well, not yet. I think I should test it first.

There you have it folks! Pay no attention to the fine print below.

* Details are at https://github.com/mikedilger/chorus
* Chorus is MIT licensed
* Chorus is architected to be high performance, but I don't know if it is.
* Chorus is not setup to charge users.
* Chorus can work as your personal relay. I don't know whether you should have a personal relay.
* Chorus is new, and like all new software it probably has significant issues.
* Chorus supports all the critical relay NIPs.
