  • A Reddit style API so people can write bots for Lesswrong or do some extention themselves. Consider having a pool to reward programmers that implement certain features in this comment thread.

  • SSL support. I don't feel comfortable anymore having my internet traffic not encrypted.

LW runs on Reddit source code. I think this would probably mean to update it to a newer version of that code base.

Just please no downvoting API for the bots. Otherwise I will have to write a moderator bot; and gradually the whole LW will become one big Core War battlefield.

Not just down-voting, I don't want bots up-voting or posting either. Come to think of it, what exactly do we want bots to do?

... You have to admit that would be kinda cool.
