I've enjoyed Mark Pilgrim's accessibility writings so far. Today he finally explained what he is doing. Some say he is being too preachy. I don't agree, but even if he is being preachy - this is a topic that needs some serious preaching.

Upcoming Roller 0.9.3 release

Most of the work is already done and in CVS, so I'm hoping I can package this up in the next couple of weeks. Here are the new features:
  • New tabbed menu in editor interface (already in CVS)
  • Better day and entry permalinks (already in CVS)
  • Blogger API support (almost done - some of it in CVS)
    • New website setting: Enable Blogger API
    • New website setting: Category for Blogger API posts
  • Add Resin servlet engine to installation guide (to be done)
  • Add javax.sql.ConnectionPooledDataSource setup to installation guide (to be done)
  • Three nice themes (to be done)
