Glen Mazza commented on ROL-601:
--------------------------------
I guess what Dave is saying (or was saying, this is from 2005) is that if a
user wants to attach arbitrary meta-data to particular blog entries (any
dynamic list of user-desired qualities about the blog entry--such as where the
person was while writing the blog entry, what the person was eating when
writing the blog entry, what music was playing in the background while writing
the blog entry, whether the blog entry was requested by a customer or the
blogger's boss, which product the company is trying to promote with the blog
entry, etc., etc....) Roller should provide a database for storing the
information. I would say that's out-of-scope today and wouldn't do much for
Roller's market share -- an Excel spreadsheet or some CMS might do the job for
the relative few wanting this. Back in 2005, Roller had several paid full-time
developers working on it, so luxuries such as these could have been looked into.
