Switch to Mephisto
October 13th, 2008
I just had to do this. Sorry to all those who already liked the old blog :D
Something had to be done about the PHP bloat that was flying around before this. So I switched to this nice and clean ruby based blogging engine.
Thanks to Passenger (mod_rails) that was relatively easy to achieve. Alas, the server is running Debian, there where some problems during the initial setup of the ruby and rails environment. Why the hell does Debian ship a 1.5 years old package in the stable branch? I mean come on 1.8.5?? WTF!
Anyway. Here we go now. Shiny new blog, leaner and meaner software, where I can actually read the code and edit it and where I can also add new features. We’ll see about that though.
I will soon move the old articles over here. Actually as soon as I have syntax highlighting like pastie.org :D
Ah, and yeah, mephisto is in fact not dead. Go see the mephisto git repo.
