Be aware that Racket is a language toolkit and offers the tools and workflows to work with language development. Also, I didn't claim that my functions were a new language, I said that Pollen is a language. Pollen is not just a bunch of functions in a language, it is a proper programming language, I invite you to check it out.
Maybe I didn't explained it well on the post. Racket comes with many languages, not necessarily DSLs, some are full blown languages. People also ship new languages as packages. Pollen is one of such languages. The post details how I can leverage the fact that I can write Racket functions and use other modules and call them from Pollen. The main objective is to make people more interested in more flexible systems for blogging. That people should mould their blog to their experience and not the other way around (which is much more common).
