Re: editing via a web form?

Well, we have xmlrpc plugins that allow her to use blog tools like 
w.bloggar (I use that on occasion) and I think Ted has the xmlrpc 
metaweblog stuff working with Ecto.  So I'm thinking that's a really good 
option since it gives her a comfortable little interface to do things in.

Other than that, you could use the weblog-add.py cgi script.  It's in the 
./contrib directory of the pyblosxom 1.0 tarball.  If you modified that 
slightly, you could convert the text she's typing in to HTML and then 
store the entyr directly to the file system.

I think either of those two solutions are good starts at solving the 
specific use case issues.  Definitely mention something on the list if 
that doesn't solve the needs or if there are problems.
