The last DasBlog release under ASP.NET 1.1 went out a couple of weeks ago, so I decided to give that a run. It all seemed to go well when running it locally, which was a good sign... and seems to be the standard for the last few updates I've done. Once I have it running locally, it's just a few config changes to get it going on the server. This one was just slightly different because there were some script files moved around and I initially had it running under ASP.NET 2 on my local machine. In any case, the site's using it now and no hassles.

I've been lurking on the DasBlog developer mailing list for a couple months now and there's a good deal of activity. Currently, the project's dev team is working on the initial ASP.NET 2.0 release, including support for Medium Trust. As I mentioned previously, there's also a theme contest going which should yield some cool new looks for folks to use.

I keep meaning to check out some of the "open source template" sites out there, but then I get sidetracked with other things... with this update, I'm settling for a few new navigation links and an updated blogroll.
