Hi folks.
I'm building a simple web site for a mate of mine who's made a film
that's just hitting the festival circuit. I want it to be pretty basic,
with just a few pages and a blog that he can update.
I use blosxom because it's bloody simple, but it required me to write in
HTML. I'll need to get something that he can write in himself, and
include links and images probably.
maybe even a video clip?
So does anyone have any recommendations?
Is there a reason you aren't going with
<https://www2.blogger.com/start?hl=en>
my own reservations were to do with making it part of a bigger website.
Requirements
* Ability for non-technical user to enter stuff
* Can switch between plain text and HTML for markup
* Can include links and images in posts
* Easily integrated in another design without using frames
Desirable
* Has a .deb or is uber-simple to install and maintain
* Not written in PHP
* Not written in $trendy_language_of_the_week
* Doesn't need a database
* If it needs a database, can work with sqlite
* Comments with some form of comment spam control
* Has a critical announcements email list/RSS feed for when security
holes are found. I'm looking at you phpBB (though they now have an
RSS feed).
