    Gone to Croatoan

    I'm migrating my blog to a new location: RWHE Having Fun Yet? on LiveJournal. Hey, LiveJournal is free and open source. I make no apologies.

    A Life Goal

    One life goal I have recently formulated is to translate the Land of the Lost theme song into Pakuni.

    Will the three of you who are left...

    ...please tell your friends and relations that the feed for this blog is finally fixed, including both RSS and Atom versions?

    I thought switching to an Atom feed would help with repeated feed entries, and it seemed to for a while, but after a few days duplicates started showing up in the Atom feed too.

    Anyway, I tracked down the real problem, and posted about it to the Blosxom and Markdown lists. Michel Fortin, one of the devs on the Markdown list stepped up and offered to help fix the bug. Meanwhile, I have a workaround.

    Thanks for your patience. Now I no longer feel... dirty... when posting to my own blog, I have a few things to say.

    RSS feed replaced with Atom

    I have replaced the broken RSS feed for this blog with an Atom feed. Please do not use the RSS feed any more.

    I noticed that since the RSS problem started, I've lost nearly all of my subscribers. I'm sorry I took so long to fix the feed; I'm a bad, bad blogfarmer. Please come back now.

    And we're back!

    This blog was off the ether(net) for a week or so because of an upgrade to Debian Etch that got stuck halfway, while I was stuck halfway across the country at Penguicon 5.0 and unable to do much about it. Fortunately, the wikis at Ludism.org were not affected.

    Anyway, we're back. Next up I promise to fix the RSS problems that readers of this blog have noticed. Thanks for your patience.
