About Roller
05.08.2017 by Dave Johnson | 0 Comments
Apache Roller is the open source Java blog server that once powered the ground-breaking employee blogging site blogs.sun.com, FreeRoller, JavaLobby's JRoller community and still powers the Apache Software Foundation blogs. If you want to set up a Java-powered blog server for yourself or for several thousand of your closest friends, try Roller!
Roller supports fundamental weblogging features such as group blogging, RSS and Atom newsfeeds, rich-text editing, customizable page templates, comments, pings, trackbacks, blogroll management and provides Atom Publishing Protocol and XML-RPC interfaces for blogging clients.
Roller was featured in an O'Reilly OnJava.com article on April 17, 2002. That article is no longer online, but you can read it here: Building an Open Source J2EE Weblogger (PDF).
