I've moved my advogato blog to ikiwiki and integrated it into my website. So far things are working out well. To migrate my website from bamboo to ikiwiki, I had to write a couple of plugins to implement features of bamboo. The first simply creates id tags for headers based on the text. The second converts site-relative links to page-relative links so you can put an ikiwiki in a subdir of a site.

Hmmm, my advogato account seems to have been dropped, losing all my certs. Interestingly the diary entries were not lost.

hypatia:

Try the following css too (works for css 2.1 browsers, and mozilla, falls back to <p> styles for non Mozilla/CSS2.1 browsers):

pre { white-space: normal; }
pre { white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; }
pre { white-space: pre-wrap; }

Finally got meself an account after lurking here for years.

On the free software side of things I just (not 30 min ago) released a minor update to chmspec. Yeah, I know it's GFDL & there are non-freeness issues with that particular licence, but as far as I know there are no proper alternatives as yet.
