This is a big deal, I think. I'm guessing it's not widely used internally anymore if they are open sourcing it. What is used instead?

As merely two examples, both gRPC and Kubernetes are important to Google, and yet Google opened sourced them. "No longer used" is not the criteria Google uses to make their software OSS.

FYI, I work at Google.

Github says it is C, C++, and Starland. What is Starland ?

It's Starlark, the language for configuring the build system Bazel. Bazel is the open source port of Google's internal build system, Blaze. Starlark is a subset of Python.

Google Wave is the only counterexample I can think of, where it was "we're deprecating this project, but releasing it as open source".

if I had to guess, that is a typo and should be starlark, which is the language used for bazel build files. bazel is the build system they use

Github says "Starlark 6.2%", so it looks like whitten's typo, not GitHub's.

on any layout operated by a human, who may at times type the wrong word entirely
