Roller 0.9.8 is available.

This new Roller release provides a dramatic performance increase due to addition of database indices, proper use of persistence sessions, and a new version of OSCache. New features include Weblog.com ping and integrated Lucene weblog search. Thanks to all that helped out with the release. For details, see the change notes. You can download the release from the project's SourceForge download page.

Don't quit your day job until your night job pays.

I can't believe that people feel the need to rag on Gavin King, the lead developer of Hibernate, because he joined the JBoss Group. They say he "sold out" and joined the dark side. What a crock. Do we really have to break up into JBoss, CDN, Open Symphony, and Jakarta camps and sling mud at each other? No, we don't! And really, who wouldn't quit their day job when they finally find a way to make their night job pay? There is no reason be upset, people. Unless, of course, they start charging for Hibernate docs. Then, my friends, heads will roll.

This pirate thing

has gone too far, matey.
