And the name is...

It's final. The new name of the blogging system is blogentis, following a discussion with Eleftheria.

I've removed all names of the former blog name, done all the package-moving work, and registered the project on SourceForge. I'm currently investigating maven-ification of the project, and the results seem encouraging so far. Source code is not yet available on the project pages, but the final license will be the GNU Lesser General Public License.

I've updated the site, the improvements/bug fixes are:

  • Unicode characters work again in templates.
  • Saving templates/files as Zip files works.
  • Comments have been added to (almost) all templates indicating their role, extra parameters they provide etc.
  • Unicode characters should work correctly from non-web-folders clients in Slide.

I've also added support for LDAP-based user account information, but it is not enabled because I'm not satisfied by the current security status of blogentis - SSL is a must, and appropriate redirects have to be implemented.
