new blogengine.net

I should have posted this last week, but I had saved it as a draft so please understand that I am not actually writing about BlogEngine.Net in Sweden.

The latest version of BlogEngine.Net was published recently.  There are a lot of improvements behind the scenes, and the overall speed should be greatly increased. There is new support for semantic web formats such as FOAF, SIOC and APML, and a new extensions engine. There are some bugs though, which will presumably be resolved in the next few days. The extensions engine also breaks the proto gallery I use, so I’ll need to do something about that.  Overall the benefits are many though, which is nice.

I have had some difficulty getting it all configured properly.  Some of that difficulty resulted from my hosting environment and some from the software itself.  However, the only real error was resolved for me within a few hours of reporting it to Mads Kristensen. So with one exception, everything is working perfectly well now.  It should be even faster than before, so for those of you in Ireland / England you’ll see a much faster page-load time.
