RE: Migrating from Blojsom to Pebble

Seems like a lot of work when you probably could've added a new template and flavor to blojsom, template: pebble.vm, flavor: export. All you'd need in the pebble.vm would be the proper tags for the pebble XML blog data format. Then you'd just have blojsom display all entries and use ?flavor=export on your blog URL and save the resulting page to disk. Done.

I'd seen a little bit of traffic out there related to bloggers installing and using Pebble, and since the only blogs I read are those of other developers, I thought there might be something to it. Not only did Pebble install and configure like a dream (1 hour to determine that I was ahead of the published docs, as opposed to 2 days with Blojsom's up-to-date docs), but I thought it looked a lot nicer out of the box. So, I thought I'd try the switch.

I guess there are always edge cases. I've only had a few people say the blojsom Quickstart bundle didn't work as advertised, i.e. setup in less than 5 minutes.

Oh well. Sorry it didn't work out.

P.S. - blojsom 3.0 M1 is available.
