Apple’s getting into weblogging

This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on June 29, 2004). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.

Very interesting tidbit of information about the server version of OS X 10.4/Tiger in Apple’s preview pages: they’re including a ‘weblog server’ based on the blojsom project, which in itself is based on the blosxom weblogging software.

A new Weblog server in Tiger Server makes it easy to publish, distribute and syndicate web-based content. The Weblog server provides users with calendar-based navigation and customizable themes, is fully compatible with Safari RSS and enables posting entries using built-in web-based functionality or with weblog clients that support XML-RPC or the ATOM API. The Weblog Server, based on the popular open source project “Blojsom,” works with Open Directory for user accounts and authentication.
