30.09.02

b2 v0.6 is out !
It halts a serie of pre-releases, fixing pretty much all the remaining bugs.
As usual, downloads are on Sourceforge.

What's new:

right-click bookmarklet for Windows IE users: just check your profile for this option
various bugfixes: no more pingback glitches, file upload dialog now checks for duplicate files (and renames them accordingly), ...

Now all the work has shifted to 1.0 !
By the way, there's no big difference between 0.6pre5 and 0.6, so you only need to upload the new files (except the empty config and your templates, of course).

Update at 2:40 (gmt+1):
There was a last-minute bug in this release, that I just fixed.
For those who already downloaded 0.6, no need to re-download it, just apply this fix.

What is b2 ?
A classy news/weblog tool (aka logware).

How does it work ?
You type something and hit "blog this" and in the next second it's on your page(s). You can write extended entries, or even entries that span multiple pages. You can also use BloggerAPI clients to post to your b2 weblog.
What's original in b2 ? Pages are generated dynamically from the MySQL database, so no clumsy 'rebuilding' is involved. It also means faster search/display capabilities, and the ability to serve your news in different 'templates' without any hassle.

Requirements ?
A server that can run PHP4, and a MySQL database (you can install b2 in an already existing database, and you can put several b2's in one database).

Where can I download it ?
b2 0.6 is the latest public release.
You can also visit the CVS server for the latest code, at your own risks.
See the ReadMe file for requirements and installation instructions.
