Baselining
Now that the weblog is up, albeit in very rudimentary form, I can begin to improve upon the design. My goal is to better learn XHTML and CSS, and to write about what I learn here. As part of this process, I intend to periodically review where I am and where I have been. To this end, I need a baseline.
The current (initial) design is that baseline. I have archived this design as the flavour rev0. You can view this post in the rev0 design, or view this site in the rev0 design.
Before looking at what I want to change, I want to review what I have. Rev0 features:
* Valid XMTL 1.0 strict and CSS
* Two column layout using CSS, not tables
* Post Calendar, Category Tree
* Badges for validation and attribution
Under the hood, the weblog is running the following plugins:
* timezone, v0.0.1
* calendar, v0+6i
* categories, v0+4i
* flavourdir, v2003-03-13
* metadir, v2.0b4 (required for textile2)
* textile2, v0+1i
* timestamp, v0+2i
* wikieditish, v2003-05-29
All of these plugins are available from the Blosxom Plugin Registry. Aside from configuration variables, they are all unmodified, except for a bug fix to wikieditsh. I did edit the default wikieditish templates a bit, to add textile help (like found on the Textile Demo Page).
