bedeviled mojo slop

In blojsom 1.8, we introduced the idea of per-entry meta-data. What does this mean? Well, put simply it means that an arbitrary set of keyed objects can be attached to each blog entry. And yes, I said objects. So, for example, a word count plugin could attach the # of words to each blog entry. Or, if we didn't have comment support in our blog entries, a comment plugin could store BlogComment objects in this meta-data. Cool, eh?

Well, in blojsom 1.9, the default implementation will be able to load blog entry meta-data from a Java properties-style file. It means that we can finally attach things like author information to entries. And, as you'll notice at the bottom of this entry you'll see a nifty little, "Posted by:" to demonstrate this capability. Mark has updated the XML-RPC handlers for Blogger and MetaWeblog to write out author information into the blog entry meta-data. Hell yeah beotch! Now we've got some real multi-author action working.

So, back in the dizay, there was this JIRA 2.0 t-shirt competition. Basically it was to come up with the slogan for a t-shirt for JIRA 2.0 development. There were quite a few entries submitted.

What ever happened Mike? Inquiring minds want to know!

For reference, I think my best was, "JIRA 2.0: Well, it ain't Bugzilla."

Wow! The rash of useless lawsuits never stops! Who wants to ban Oreo cookies in California? Really, I'm at a loss for how utterly stupid this lawsuit really is!
