I Too have the same requirement i need a LMS with buddypress

Good, i’m changing the names of the plugins.

I think the question will be how far away from a REST API are we?

Do you mean stuff like?

CSV
SQL
JSON
YAML
XML
HTML

I have never heard of this. We might need to look into it.

Do you know *what* instance of the script tag your set of plugins was breaking on, so we can look at the markup being generated? We have lots.
