Viktor,

Your comment is intriguing to me. As near as i can tell the Web 2.0 trend
has this effect that what started out as a traditional domain/business
object model scales out to the point where it starts to look a lot like an
analytics db -- especially when you're trawling for patterns, trends and
other marketing-like data.

As for my little project, i think it's a perfect match for DSLs that cover
analytic set ups like i see in biology and computational finance.

Best wishes,

--greg
