Hi Sam and Phillip, I'm curious about the Evented APIs spec and am trying to understand what motivated it. I noticed this answer to the FAQ about PubSubHubbub, but it didn't really help:
The complexity of using a distribution hub doesn’t make sense for anything but large systems. PuSH was a way to reduce polling on the origin server, but it’s really a stop-gap for better evented systems. "PuSH is just a stop-gap" seems like a content-free answer. I imagine you must have had more detailed reasons in mind; would you mind elaborating a bit on what you mean by "stop-gap" and "better"? Thanks, —Ka-Ping Yee
