I had a really busy day and didn't get as much done as I wanted.

I think the sprint week went really well.  Looks like we spent a lot of
time on the web-site and on documentation with some time on a few other
things.

I also helped someone upgrade from a 1.4.something to a 1.5-git blog and
that went swimmingly.

The 1.5 milestone has grown, but I'm feeling pretty good about it
nonetheless.

I'm currently working on factoring Dieter's and Sean's thoughts on the
web-site into a web-site overhaul.  I think doing a chunk of this before
a 1.5 release is important since it's the best way to find plugins and
documentation.  Having a sucky web-site sucks.

A couple of days ago, I said I'd throw together an outline for the new
site, send it to the list, and then we could banter it about.  I'm
thinking instead I'm going to throw a new site together that's "good
enough" and fixes the egregious issues the current one has.  Then I'll
move on to other things blocking the 1.5 release.  After 1.5 is out, we
can go back and properly work through the web-site as a group.

Things I still need help with:

1. Testing PyBlosxom 1.5 in git works on your blog.

2. Running the unit tests.

3. Going through the bugs in the 1.5 milestone and triaging the ones I
pulled from SourceForge.  You can recognize them because they have "ID:"
in the title.  This is mostly a testing and triaging exercise.


While the sprint week is over, we still haven't released 1.5.  Any help
towards that laudable goal is immensely appreciated!
