This keeps coming up, so in the theme of Andrei's talk and
because my day job is a web dev, I decided to do something
about it. I have created this tumblr blog which I hope to shape
into the official dlang blog: http://officaldlang.tumblr.com/
A couple of notes:
1. I choose tumblr because we really shouldn't reinvent the
wheel here with something as simple as a blog. Tumblr has
thousands of servers, solid funding, solid uptime, and a simple
interface.
2. Tumblr supports markdown
3. Tumblr gives complete access to its templating engine,
allowing you to make the site look like what ever you want
4. Tumblr allows for custom domains, so if everyone here likes
this idea then I can have the domain of the blog be
blog.dlang.org
5. Any core team members who ask for access to the blog via an
email to me will get it automatically
Please no tumblr.
