Cherryblosxom 0.1 released

Back on Thursday I made the first public release of Cherryblosxom, calling it 0.1. It is probably of minimal use to anybody because it comes with no documentation and is missing crucial features (e.g. RSS/Atom feeds), but I think even a mostly-useless 0.1 release can be beneficial for a project in that it maintains a sense of momentum.

As you'll be able to see if your browser does RSS/Atom auto-discovery, the development version of Cherryblosxom that powers this blog has basic RSS/Atom functionality - provided by a development version of feedformatter. I hope to have both of those development versions released sometime in the next week, but I have substantially less free time for that sort of thing for the next fortnight (and have had for the last week, hence the relative lack of blogging). If I do get the Cherryblosxom version out as 0.2, perhaps I'll make some minor concessions in the direction of user friendliness. Once the product itself is a little more complete I will disttools to make it easy to install (in the usual way, python setup.py install) and eventually I'll put it on PyPi.

I've not forgotten about my Prime Time series, but when I next have time to put out a "proper" blog entry I hope to talk briefly about the use of Bayesian inference in phylogenetics. This is admittedly not something I know a lot about, but I feel like I know enough to find it justifiably fascinating.
