what about:

* automated posting of articles

* comments articles
  - threaded?

* searching the content of past articles (and comments)

(read: is there a need for a database backend?)

* forums
  - do we need ones?
  - provide an interface to a newsgroup/mailinglist?

How is authentication done? How is session management done?

If a project contains badly-written code, then this is a good reason not
to use it (it is not exactly usable)

Keep in mind that horde is originally intended as a "groupware"and focused
around authnenticated users. our weblog system will generally be for
non-authenticated users.
