Go Port of Dom Distiller

[markusmobius]

For those interested in an updated version of Boilerpipe: the Chromium team based their DOM Distiller library for reader mode on Chrome on boilerpipe. Their program is in Java (like Boilerpipe) and is based on Boilerpipe (similar file structure to the boilerpipe repo etc). However, the library has GWT dependencies and is meant to compile to Javascript.

We ported the Java code of DOM Distiller to Go (without GWT and any Chromium dependencies):

It now works fine as a server-side program or command line program - similar to the original Boilerpipe.

The stable branch is the most faithful port of Distiller (everything minus some parts where Distiller relies on some render-level info).

The master branch includes insights from Mozilla's readability.
