OK, next question to annoy people with :-)

Are there any recommendations/rules of thumb/whatever about when to make a 
new camliNodeType, or just random tags, etc.

As a little background, I've had an "app in my head" that I've actually 
coded some a little (in Python) that would make a "outline" type interface, 
except any node could be just a line of text, a paragraph, an image, a 
document, whatever. In essence a lot of my "work" I think of in outline 
form (just works for me), but I want to include more than just basic text 
sometimes.

So I have nodes that are just text (should that be a "file" or just a 
blob?), some that are definitely files, some definite images, then others 
that I would like to define myself (as an example a "reading log" entry - 
book name, date started, date ended, author name, comments). For my "self 
defined", I envision my app (someday) finding all "reading log" entries and 
displaying them in some custom table format (or whatever fit). So should 
those be blobs with random attributes, should they have a camliNodeType, or 
a bruceNodeType, or some other good way?

Anyhow, most of my work bounced off limitations of how I could figure out 
storage, but Camlistore seems to actually cover all my needs, and has 
certainly been developed by folks with more low level programming skills 
than mine.

I assume this is one of those things that can be done a variety of ways, 
but it seems that once you start down a path, it would be difficult to 
change, so I would kind of like to get it right the first try :-)

Thanks for your patience!

Bruce
