Yep, that's me as well :)

As for progress, I'm experimenting with automatic InfluxDb/Grafana integration right now, actually [0]! I think ideally HPI would be able to automatically create influxdb mirror + 'reasonable' Grafana dashboards for each data source, by using type information. And of course, it would also be possible for the user to create custom dashboards (from Grafana, or from python code which would automate the manual Grafana steps).

For something Memex-like, Grafana probably won't be enough. But I'd like to use existing open source tools to the maximum extent possible -- both Influx/Grafana/Jupiter/etc are awesome, well optimized and powerful instruments, and I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
