>From the peanut gallery:

I think this basic idea sounds fabulous. I've been kicking clojure's tires, 
and I keep meaning to slap a blog engine together. But then I go into 
tailspin because I want to blog about the experience, but my blogs are down 
and I don't want to go through setting up WP yet again, and...yeah. It's 
been kind of a "This is a fairly interesting project to introduce yourself 
to the language, but is it *really* worth doing yourself?" thing for me.

For me, the answer (so far) has been "That looks fun, and I'd like to be a 
contributor, but I just don't have time to tackle it now...maybe next 
weekend."

So, anyway, before I disagree below, I'll add a basic +1. (For whatever my 
lurker n00b opinion might be worth).

Isn't that basically the point to a URL?
Especially when you consider the basic REST principles? *Someone* will want 
a RESTful blog eventually. Even if that's "just" a plugin, keeping those 
ideas in mind from the beginning seems like a wise practice. I haven't 
worked on a project yet where anyone ever wished that we hadn't invested in 
that up front. Though it's been far more common that we didn't, so it's 
mostly been a matter of trying to deal with the pain of replicating it 
later.

I don't actually have a clue what you have in mind for stefon's actions. So 
maybe I'm actually agreeing with you.

I apologize if this isn't coherent...it's been a long, brutal day. I saw 
this thread this morning, and this is the first chance I've had to respond 
(after I'm totally exhausted).

Regards,
James
