Hey Ty, Essentially the wolfram API is a REST / XMLRPC hybrid, so my plan is to model a scala abstraction around Apache HTTP (similar to the paypal integration) - speaking of which, i might actually abstract some of the common factories out of lift-paypal into lift-util if applicable.
The interesting challenge will be that with wolfram, it can return a whole bunch of things, they could be graphs, text, sound - so i'll need some abstract way of making that presentable - perhaps some decoupled thing with a core communication group, then some lift specific abstractions for hooking into bind() or something... I've not figured it out yet in my head, so any thoughts are most welcome.
