Hey there! This article was written in 2015.

It might not have aged well for any number of reasons, so keep that in mind when reading (or clicking outgoing links!).

Moving, part 7

Posted 4 February 2015 in website

Good news! I have almost 200 blog entries spanning eight years "imported" into Pelican (really, I have almost 200 text files on a USB drive). I've even written code that automatically converts in-blog links from LiveJournal URL's to the new URL scheme. I really need multiple categories, though, in part because I want the site to be extremely feeds-friendly, and being unable to make an announcement that will appear in category-specific feeds (which I did when announcing a new date parser for feedparser and listparser, for instance) seems very limiting. Maybe I should just give up and use tags. Ugh. Lawless.
