One of the features that I have been hacking on for my Python open source web publishing system called Calabro (which this blog is running on) is a pluggable theme system. In an effort to test out this I have started pulling in themes from various open source blog publishing systems and starting integrating them into this blog.

This new theme is based on the very clean Hemingway Reloaded which is a “Wo

Well as my friend Damon said:
“It is about time…lol”.

Now that I have the beta version of Calabro running this blog I plan to write at least everyday if not more.

Calabro is still in beta with a first version coming out soon so this blog will be the best place to test out calabro’s features and work out any issues.

Well, I finally have my slice and have installed all of the goodies to get Calabro up and running. I plan to do some testing for a week or so, then move my existing Typo powered blog over, re-point my domain, and then we will be rocking.

Now that I have pre-release version of Calabro available, I plan to move this blog on to Calabro. This typo powered blog is hosted on DreamHost, but I have lost my faith in DreamHost, their shared hosting plan could not handle my previous blog, notesonrails.com. So I am moving to Slice Host, but unfortunately their is a waiting list.

I have uploaded the current pre-release version of Calabro, the publishing system that makes it very easy to setup a blog or website. Over the next few weeks I will have the remaining initial features complete and be ready to release version 0.5. Anyone interested in playing with the pre-release version can check it out from subversion.

I am building a new open source blogging platform in Python, which I plan to replace this Typo powered blog with very soon,
