An open letter to Axl Rose

Dear Axl Rose,

Please stop writing and playing music.

Please. Please. Please. Please. I will totally be your best friend.

Sincerely,

David Czarnecki

PS- Please please please please. Thank you.

Why write this open letter? Aside from Axl trying to boycott the release of a GnR greatest hits album, the following quote in the article really got to me in a "You dumbasses" sort of way (my emphasis): "Geffen has paid $13.5 million into the "Chinese Democracy" project, which has been more than seven years in the making, the source said.

Wow ... just ... wow!

blojsom 2.13 available

blojsom 2.13 is available. Download here. I'll have the site updated later tonight, so unfortunately I cannot point you at an official changelog. In the meantime, let me cover the "bigger" changes ...
  • You can now display the full list of categories in your templates instead of what is available in the category hierarchy. All categories are placed under the BLOJSOM_ALL_CATEGORIES key.
  • Added ability to submit a list of trackback and ping URLs when adding or updating blog entries from within the administration interface. For the next release, you'll be able to have a default set of ping URLs pre-populate the box.
  • Added GroovyDispatcher to the addon core source tree. This dispatcher allows you to write templates using Groovy. This uses the new SimpleTemplateEngine class available in Groovy 1.0b4. Quoting myself, "I'll say it again ... that means you can write blojsom templates using JSP, Velocity, FreeMarker, or Groovy ... and you can mix-and-match dispatchers to handle different flavors ... which further demonstrates why blojsom rocks!"
  • Added "cipher" theme courtesy of Kirk Peterson.
  • Added ResourceManager interface and implementation ResourceBundleResourceManager class which allows language packs to be developed for blojsom for localization.
Apparently all of the SourceForge mirrors are not all sync'd yet, so if one of them says the 2.13 files are not available, try another.
