1. How much more complicated does this make the server? Seems like some pretty fancy code would have to be written to turn GraphQL tot SQL.

2. I think the biggest issue with HTTP verbs is that there is not an flexible way for the client to control the data that comes back from server. GETs dont have a body and the other verbs are for add/mod of data. I'm assuming that they are using POST for everything.

It is absolutely not that simple on the server, but we hope do to a lot of the heavy lifting for you via our open source release of code and spec in terms of lexing, parsing, and executing a query.

Can you comment on whether or not you'll be releasing any implementations and if so, what languages they'll be in?

+1, knowing the languages of the open sourced implementations would be very helpful.
