Blogging Roller

Matt has put together a nice Roller 0.9.7 TODO list for himself. Cool stuff. The "remember me" feature sounds especially useful. Apart from finishing-up the linkback feature, the main thing I would like to do is to fix comments. I would like to eliminate the pop-up comment window and instead allow users to specify a template for displaying comments. I would like to make it possible for Roller users to have a comment page like the one on Sam Ruby's site: comments, linkbacks, pingbacks, and trackbacks are displayed in chronological order and are grouped by day. You can view comments per item, or you can view recent comments on all items.

Also, for FreeRoller, we need to move RollerConfig into the database so that Roller can run accross multiple background worker servers and fix the performance problems with the index.jsp page. The caching works great on index.jsp, but refreshing the cache is still painfully slow.

Wow, that's a lot of work...
