OK, I have Blosxom generating static pages now. Writebacks won’t work because the sysadmins haven’t yet re-enabled the CGI. Hopefully they get back to me soon, but I’ve only moved up by four positions in their queue in the last twelve hours.

I thought I was all slick, having written a .htaccess file successfully keeping out the offending bots that have been hammering my webhost, but it turns out that I had introduced a syntax error, causing everybody to be blocked. (For future reference, don’t put any unescaped whitespace in your regexes.)

This site is crippled, but at least you can read my rantings and ravings.
