I' also involved in the development of a Python/Django based server-side
component[1] for Weave and I can say that the server is content-agnostic
i.e. it only cares about two types of objects:
 WBOs:
  Weave Basic Objects: Stores ID, parent ID, username, sortindex and a
  payload which is plain JSON.
 Collections:
  Stores a subset of WBOs.
All the logic is on the client side and changes in the storage format
should only occur in the JSON payload. The only problem I can see is if
people use different versions of the Weave client as this could lead to
different formats for the payload getting pushed to the server (which
would mess up older/newer clients). Plus, the server API is designed to
handle different (read older) versions by placing the Weave API version
in the URL.
