New Blog Live!

Well after several weeks of tinkering and tweaking, I finally got the new blog live. This endeavor took a lot longer than I thought it would take. I knew it would take some time to create the conversion scripts to migrate my old entries to the new blog software, but I didn't plan on the amount of work I'd end up doing on the BlogCFC code to get everything working the way I wanted.

I ended up making a lot of modifications to the source code that I plan on sending to Raymond Camden so he can do whatever he sees fit with the code. I know he's working on v6—which is a major re-write of the software.

Some of the biggest changes I made were in the XML-RPC support. One of the key reasons I wanted to migrate off the software I wrote was so that I could use a 3rd party blogging software. I'm currently writing this entry using Microsoft's Live Writer.
