The March 17th deadline is coming up fast. Any ideas for interesting
Roller development? - Dave


Here's one --
Create a standard blog template tag library and suite of templates that could be used by Roller and (with some effort by the other project) any other (JVM-based) blog.

I presented <http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/roller-dev/200603.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED]> some of these ideas about 2 years ago (my how time flies) and many of the pre-reqs have since been built.

Java blog software fights an uphill battle for lots of reasons. One reason is lack of pretty templates (not to put down any of the fine work that has been done, but WordPress has probably two orders of magnitude more choices available) So maybe the other Java blog projects could join in on the development and at the very least define an extensible baseline spec for blog templates. Then the different Java blog projects could focus on fighting some of the other uphill battles.
