Marc,
I rated Innovation a bit lower as have others, obviously.
The challenge is that I want it to be about programming, and other things first.

If you come up with an innovative way to do Run Length Encoding, or IEEE Floating point math, that is fine, but I have little use, other than casually reading it.

If it is something I am interested in, programming related, and then innovative, then clearly. As the Author, your bias is that the first 2 are already handled.

I am interested in learning things I can relate to, might need, or have needed. Innovative comes after informative.

HTH in some way!
