Thanks for the plug, Charlie. I added an exclamation point in my "Charlie's List" for each of your feature requests ;-)
On a side note to that I've been pretty busy of late with my head down re-architecting the admin UI and comments functionality. A bunch of changes which you (and Ben Nadel) suggested are in there, but since I took the time to convert the old code over to an MVC pattern and separate all of the presentation from the logic while I was monkeying around, CFBlog will have to be patched all at once instead of incrementally. Hope you can wait a couple more weeks. :-) For Vince: Vince, the BF Enterprise Portal has some pretty nice features based on what it sounds like you need. Feel free to e-mail me off-list if you want to take a test drive and I'll get you a demo portal to play with. One advantage to using the hosted service is that we can fully integrate with the server for things like separate domains for portals and individual blogs. For Nate: Nate, responding to your reply later in this thread, I'm sorry. I don' t get comments e-mails for the old BF dev blog and I'm actually going to be consolidating the CFBlog Admin Blog as the only Blogfusion "Dev" blog since CFBlog always gets upgrades before any of the other portals. I just checked your comment. If you want to follow up with that and discuss, shoot me and e-mail off list and I'll go more into detail with a response to your concerns. I'm not trying to duck it, mind you, it's a more detailed response than I'm ready to type at 2AM :-) Regards, Jon Clausen On Apr 6, 2007, at 1:16 PM, Charlie Griefer wrote: > The only thing I can offer up is that I use BlogFusion's hosted blog > (http://cfblog.com/cgriefer/index.cfm) and I'm pretty happy with it. > > I don't know how the features of the cfblog sites compare with the > features of the Enterprise Blog Portal software, but overall I'm > pretty happy (altho there are a few features I'd like to see added). > > I will offer up a HUGE recommendation for the guys behind BlogFusion > tho.
