drivel-2.1.0-2mdv2008.1.i586.rpm

Drivel is a web log ("blog") client designed for the GNOME desktop 
environment.  It's compatible with a number of popular online journal systems,
including:

* LiveJournal (www.livejournal.com)
* MovableType (www.sixapart.com/movabletype)
* Blogger (www.blogger.com)
* Advogato (www.advogato.org)
* Atom (www.atomenabled.org)

Drivel is able to post and edit entries to all of the listed systems.  It can
also list recent entries and delete old entries from every system except
Advogato.  The intergrated editor supports syntax highlighting, spell checking,
and shortcut keys for HTML formatting.

The latest release of Drivel can be found at http://www.dropline.net/drivel/.

KNOWN BUGS AND ISSUES

* The current architecture is horrid and tied far too closely with the GUI.
  The journal editor should really be reworked in a cleaner fashion.
* There are a number of hard-to-trace memory leaks.
* Journal API support is not very modular--a plugin interface would be much
  nicer.
