After brief experience with Drupal, I'd propose that the blog platform market is pretty well served by WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, et al., and a better strategy would be something that supports general web development that isn't tied to a particular model like a blog. That seems like the weakness of the "content management systems" that you currently have to pick from. They all support an infinite variety of trivial variations on the blog model, but make it hard to really go anywhere else.

I agree. However, I still think that a mature solution on par with WordPress & co. would serve as a great catalyst for adoption on the web. Q: Are you trying to tell me that Haskell is good for web development? A: Sure, look at the industry-strength XYZ CMS Q: WordPress does the same A: Yes, but this had 1% of security vulnerabilities in the last year, and it runs twice as fast. Of course the same could be said for any applicative context, not just web CMSes (uh, just realized a blog itself could be an Applicative ;) Greetings, Nicola
