The Internet needed another source of rants and uninvited uninformed opinions.

And I wonder why I never get to bed...
I decided that 1:30am was the perfect time to give Gnome Blog another try to see if I can get it working with my slightly customized pyblosxom install. I had problems using it before and assumed the software was buggy but it turns out the problems were ones I created myself.
I needed to delete two lines of code I added to the blogger xmlrpc API plugin within pyblosxom and add a total of two lines of code to properly generate a correct ID for use with the 'pyfilenamemtime.py' plugin. Making these changes also fixed a problem I had with BloGTK's handling of entry titles.
It is amazing how simple pyblosxom code is and yet how powerful it is. (And the python xmlrpc library looks near godly as far as 'cool hacks in few lines of code' go...)
Total time spent on all of this (and not sleeping): One hour.
