Petit Bourgeois

Here's an interesting post: you'll be happy to know I've upgraded to the latest version of b2evolution, the blog engine that powers this site.

I've had little difficulty re-customizing the skin, but I had to hack the core to hide empty categories, and to tweak things a little bit to handle entirely clean URLs. Deprecating rendering plugins really sucks though: some of my old posts that were using Textile markup are no longer rendered appropriately... I guess there's no easy way around that but it's pretty annoying.

The new Ouvaton platform works perfectly with this software, and I was able to make even cleaner URLs than before.
