            Has it really been five years since the last release?

Since it's been a quiet day at The Virtual Office, I did some work on the
backend of the ol' journal here, mostly tweaking the webserver configuration
(such as mod_deflate [1] and mod_expires [2] among other configuration
changes), some changes in where certain files live and under what names (for
example—the CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) now gets a unique file name for each
change, which means I can set the expiration date for such files way into the
future, which helps with caching and cuts down on bandwidth usage) and a few
modifications to mod_blog [3] to generate better navigational links.

It was then I noticed that the last release for mod_blog was five years ago.

Ooh.

Well, it's not like anyone else uses the codebase, but still, I felt a bit
bad about that, so I went ahead and made a new tarball [4] of the current
version [5], just in case someone is interested in the codebase.
