Is http://getsimpleform.com/ too basic? No affiliation, I came across it when making something similar

Looks like the homework is to make an OCaml client for reading the spool files. Perhaps this is the start of a poignant guide to OCaml?

Pretty hard to read any text with that going, it's a shame it doesn't respond to .

Thanks, that would be a good approach, mine is currently very barebones! just trying to get the syntax right and get a feel for using it in actual projects - hope to put up a real …

I've been playing with a similar syntax: https://github.com/maplambda/py-htmlout/blob/master/htmlgen.... I need to provide better examples, tests and form handling. I'm finding it …

Always enjoy reading johns posts.

The on request sever design is an interesting approach. It seems like it would provide a good framework for a small personal site. I wonder where this fits between using a site gen…

I've wondered why I never see a gosu reference when comparing jvm languages. I was quite pleasantly surprised when I checked it out.. Looking forward to having a play in the near f…

Some of the lisp style stacks get very close as do some smalltalk environments (squeak). Of course this means generating the markup from code but seems to work well enough. HN is a…

I hope that this style catches on - better than the blog templates most people use. Being a bike store I would have thought they'd list brands and specialities though.. It seems th…

Thanks! :)

late reply I know, something along the lines of what 37signals offer for their pages api (backpack) would be great! Generally just the ability to post a page - ability to hack up a…

I've been using wpf and xaml for making nice quick applications for windows. I need a dsl for the xaml or a ruby wrapper for the API - Which I'm currently investigating. Too bad mo…

The method I described would only have the same amount of traffic as an RSS feed as it would just be updating headlines. I guess it just depends on use. I never got into using an r…

I'd been thinking the exact same thing on the drive home today, expanding on an earlier thought I had that twitter is RSS done right. http://twitter.com/catch404/status/24605947455…

Quite possibly the geekiest hn comment I've read :)

Also do you plan custom domain support? I'd imagine that could be a money earner if you made it exremely simple for customers

Is there a Twitter account to follow updates?

Really like it and agree with your wiki point! are you planning to offer ssl and an API? That's all it would take to move from my ugly backpack page
