Blogs

Since pybloxsom gives me trouble, though no fault of it's own, I have been causually looking around for alternatives. There is a review of a number of different blogging packages, which is quite interesting. Unfortunalty, many of them use PHP, which I have a distaste for, or are proprietary.

On the proprietary angle, the recent changes to Movable Type's licence for version 3.0 have been noted by many bloggers. Dave uses MT, but I believe he falls well within the "free" licence, but I wonder what he thinks of the changes, or if it matters much?

In my quest to learn LISP, I decided to write a small LISP program. I wrote a CGI that describes LISP symbols (but not very well), as inspired by some other guy's site, and then I started writing a bloxsom clone, which will probably give a 500, but you can click here to type it. Yeah, it's not even remotely finished.
