perldoc.perl.org ★

Great new documentation site for Perl by Jon Allen. The syntax coloring for code examples is a bit jaunty, but overall I like the design quite a bit.

‘Hacking Movable Type’ Goes to Press ★

Hitting bookstores soon. Co-authored by Jay Allen, Brad Choate, Ben Hammersley, Matt Haughey, and David Raynes.

Typo ★

Typo is a weblogging system written in Ruby on Rails. Rather than provide a web-based admin interface, it relies upon XML-RPC clients such as MarsEdit for posting. (Via Brent Simmons.) Uses Textile instead of Markdown, though. [Update: Actually, Markdown formatting is available as a text-formatting option, it just isn’t mentioned in the feature list on the web site.]

Mac Emulator CherryOS “On Hold” ★

Rip-off of the open source PearPC project has been put “on hold — until further notice”.
