+"""An interface to the milo service, which provides buildbot information.
+
+The protocol buffer defining the API is located here:
+https://github.com/luci/luci-go/blob/master/milo/api/proto/buildbot.proto
+
+The API basically returns the same thing as the buildbot JSON API. We use the
+milo API instead of raw buildbot json because this is the method supported by
+Chrome infra team; the data is available longer and pinging the API does not
+DOS buildbot pages.

Is there documentation on their jsonp format anywhere, or did you just figure it
out by inspecting responses manually? Is this built-in to grpc? I'm just asking
because this seems like it might be fragile, so the more we know about the magic
number 5, the better.

I added a comment; this is a really common prefix used for security purposes.

+  # Decompress and unmarshal the json message.

+  if not data:
+    return None
+  result = json.loads(data)
+  # Convert properties and steps lists to dicts
+  properties = {p[0] : p[1] for p in result['properties']}
+  result['properties'] = properties
