I’m in the process of replacing the news system on this site with one provided by bloxsom. The current system is a set of hand build scripts. It could be thought of as an early version of blogging software like blosxom, but we didn’t think of the good name or put the effort into making it really useful. With the new system, I should be able to update the news more often (and will probably turn it into more of a blog). We’ll also get rss feeds for free.

p>It might take a while to get this set up - there’s a lot to do (formatting for this site, including archive calendar links, slashdot style icons and other plugins. I’ll probably also change to using static html produced by blosxom to spped things up.

UPDATE 2003/09/28: progress

I’m busy working on it, but it will take a while to make it look nice. I’ll post a full report of what configuration and plugins I’ve used once it is set up. I might even write a little how to :)
