It's Old Reliable Run time. I ran the course last week and I'm still alive. I'm hoping to repeat that result today, so wish me luck. Check out the route. It passes every important downtown Raleigh landmark including the capitol square, Krispy Kreme, the mold-infested governor's mansion, Sadlacks and the fabulous NCSU bell tower.
Update: Results are in. I did better than I'd expected.

Migs Paraz has got some interesting ideas about building a geo-aware blog community aggegator, based in part on the Recovery 2.0 call to convene post and thread at Jeff Jarvis's site. And what's more, he's started a proof-of-concept site, based on Roller's built-in planet aggregator, Google Maps API and the GeoInfo RSS module. It didn't work in all my browsers, so here's a screen-shot:

If you've been reading this blog for a while, you know that I've been writing a book RSS and Atom in Action on developing applications with RSS, Atom and other blog technologies. I finished writing a couple of months ago except for one chapter, the one that covers the Atom protocol. I can't finish that chapter until the Atom protocol is stable. With Draft 06, which was posted today, I think I might just have the stability I need.
Tonight I'll start working on updating my Atom client (that's the Chapter 8 example in my Blogapps project) and my Atom server (in the Roller sandbox). Once I'm done, I'll make a Blogapps examples and demo server release so that folks can try my client and server with other developing Atom protocol implementations.

It took a bit longer than I expected, but my Blogapps project was just approved on Java.Net. I didn't realize that I had to upload some content for review by the community masters. As soon as I uploaded my code an put up a front page, the project was reviewed and approved.
At the moment, you can only get the Blogapps Java code and you can only get it via CVS. There are Ant built scripts and README files that tell you how to build and run the examples. Next up: some reasonable docs, the C# examples, and a real release. I'll release a build of the examples and the Blogapps demo server (the standalone Roller, JSPWiki Tomcat, and HSQLDB bundle). Here's the project summary:Blogapps - Useful RSS/Atom examples and utilitiesThis project hosts the examples and utilities from the Manning Publications book RSS and Atom In Action. These examples and utilities are designed to be useful even if you haven't read the book. They're available under the Apache License 2.0 so you can use the code in your applications and you can modify and redistribute them as you wish (as long as you adhere to the Apache license). We're hosting them here to make it easy to support, maintain and improve them in response to user and reader feedback.

Linda Skrocki: Dave and Allen just promoted Roller 2.0 to blogs.sun.com. A couple of the hot new features are group blogging (one weblog - multiple authors) and lots of user interface enhancements that Josef (UI/UE guru) helped the team iterate.And there was much rejoicing! You'll hear more about Roller 2.0 as we try to coax a release out of the Apache Incubator.
Kudos to Dave, Allen, Josef & the rest of the Roller development team!
