I've been thinking about WSGI and CouchDB recently, while on the subject of digital inflexibility. First, I want to clarify a few things about what I mean by flexibility with respect to an application, and how the current crop of frameworks approach this problem. If you want to follow this musing well, I highly suggest reading "What PHP Deployment Gets Right" by Ian Bicking; or just his entire blog, and most of the crosstalk on the web about REST, Web Services, and the evolution of the WWW.
