Back from the wilderness

December 4, 2001

Well, it’s a bit overdue, but the redesign has finally happened. There will be various tweaks over the next few weeks, but the major backend stuff is complete, and the whole weblog is now contained in the fabulous Moveable Type content management system. Whew!
Thanks for waiting…I’ve learned more about Perl and my hosting server than [...]
