[LISP] [Web] Let's work on the new Lispweb! [Standard]

We're all sick of dealing with the verbosity of XML/SGML based languages, the inconsistency of CSS and the overall badness of Javashit. Transcompiling to any of these languages is just a half-assed try at sugarcoating a turd.

Post your ideas for syntax/semantic rules, document structure, protocols, rendering techniques or anything relevant to the topic.

Hopefully we will be able to create a basic clone of /prog/ using the newly designed languages. No need to work on retarded features like animations or ``single page applications'' because this project is aimed exclusively at EXPERT PROGRAMMERS.

The goal was never to build web 4.0. What we require is something that can replace the terrible mudball that people have been adding to and adding to. Replace it with something that is simultaneously expressive enough to build "sites" for the things we want to do, and to be simple enough to implement by an individual.

What you said about "static type systems" is right: We need to restrict things a lot so that they can be implemented securely. Both implementors and users benefit from this. A simple-to-implement yet general way to design pages and layouts seems too difficult to come up with so far - so I proposed this alternative.

Thanks for your input! It's really useful!
