So I have to ask...is there *any* documentation out there on what this is and how people are supposed to use it? Shockingly, typing "Google fibers" into Google leads to a less than fully joyful outcome... This won't be easy for anybody to review if they have to start by reverse-engineering what it's supposed to do.
Thanks,
