PyBlosxom 1.1 released

It's been a long time coming, but it's here now. Changes since the last release:

Pertinent to users:

  1. We no longer include contributed plugins and flavours with the release. To find plugins and flavours, use the PyBlosxom registry.
  2. We changed how num_entries is handled internally. If num_entries is set to 0, the blosxom default file handler will display all the entries. If num_entries is set to a positive number, then the blosxom default file handler will display at most that many entries.

Pertinent to developers and plugin developers:

  1. Plugins that implement cb_filelist are now in charge of adjusting the number of entries to be displayed based on the num_entries configuration variable. This is no longer done in the renderer.
  2. We added HTTP_COOKIE to the list of things that get added to the http dict in the Request object.

I know there will be some issues with us not packaging contributed plugins with the code. We're planning to package contributed plugins in a separate release with its own release cycle.

If you have problems, check out the PyBlosxom Manual and if that doesn't help, send us questions on the pyblosxom-users mailing list.
