Google Summer of Code 2007: PyBlosxom

Blake poked me via email and suggested I put together some ideas for a PyBlosxom GSoC project under the PSF umbrella a couple of months ago. It was a hectic time, but I threw some ideas together based on items we had in the TODO list (many of which are pretty stale at this point). I'm happy to say that we had a great proposal for building a web front end for PyBlosxom--a tool that I think a good portion of PyBlosxom users would be happy to have.

I'll be mentoring this project over the course of the summer. Z has already started working on things and I think this will turn out nicely.

As a side note, this is a huge motivator towards finishing up a release and getting out a new version of the PyBlosxom manual. On the flip side, I'm getting married in a week so I'm finding it difficult to allocate time to get the work done. Wedding planning is intense. They should use wedding planning to teach project management courses--talk about shifting requirements and general project insanity. ;)

Post a new comment:

Three things:

New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.
