I haven't fallen into a black hole - honest.

What happened was that I started trying to capture the BitC spec, and ran
afoul *yet again* of the limitations of blog/CMS technology. Then winter
break hit, and I decided that as much as all of you are such fine and
upstanding people, I wanted to spend some project time with my son. We
built most of a 3D printer (the parts they forgot to send should arrive any
day) and also a mildly interesting woodworking table that I'm just wrapping
up.

Back to BitC:

I wanted to get the working draft captured someplace where we could comment
on it collectively, which sort of suggested a blog of some form. I
definitely want to be able to include type rules in the document, which
means using something that can handle MathJax. Enter the demon IFRAME from
hell. IFRAMEs and MathJax don't play nicely together unless the blogging
software supports MathJax explicitly (which the big ones don't). Google
docs doesn't have any good way to do character styles.

What I seem to be left with is wordpress (the .org) version, and I'm scared
out of my mind of the security implications. I'm going to bring it up on a
VM so I understand how it works.

So: still working on that, but making progress.
