Too easy (was FW: [pushlet] Digest Number 246)

I wouldn't just say "too easy" but also "too simple" in the Occam's Razor
sense. Simple is difficult to comprehend. Unfortunately ease and simplicity
is often equated with "not powerful" when IMHO the opposite is often true.
In the case of mod_pubsub this is especially true given the hegemonic is
procedural and monolithic and with a tendancy towards performance; a mindset
that is prevalent in my own perspective and is difficult to adjust after
many years of practise.

While I think I grok mod_pubsub, the big question for me is: what
principles, constraints and architecture do I use to design applications
that leaverage the precepts of mod_pubsub? More importantly what problem
domains, therefore applications, benefit?
