Damien once mentioned on IRC a clever way to do ordered lists. Keep each item in it's own document, and store the list position as a float. To insert an item between two others, average their position-floats and use that. In the case of replication with other items on the list from remote nodes, approximate order should be preserved. -- Chris Anderson http://jchris.mfdz.com
