Hi Olaf,

I agree with you that your example is complex enough to explain some
DDD concepts. Having taken a quick look at it, I've seen a few
connections with the examples Mr. Evans provides.
I personally think it's hogwash to say DDD is applicable only to the
most complex domain - that looks like avoidance to face reality, which
is that every domain becomes complex as you dig into it.

Having said that, there is an obvious issue with your question, since
it sounds like you want answers to unspecified questions. If you asked
few specific questions instead of providing a link to a blogpost, you
might be more lucky in getting some good insights ;)

Regards,
Rikard
