			<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 15:45:40 GMT" pgfnum="1511" text="1. A new clean release of River2, with a simple Howto that gets you a static river served by River2 itself. Easily mirrored on S3. A documented process for adding other users (and therefore other rivers)."></outline>
			<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 15:46:17 GMT" pgfnum="1512" text="2. A new clean release of EC2 for Poets, with a Tools folder with just ec2Support.root and helloWorld.root. That is, none of the applications. When it installs you have one user, admin. All setup is done by the OPML Editor website. No special configuration panels, as we were doing with the photo archiver, and with blork. The special purpose setup routines just replicate code that should be in the core, and none of them do a very good job. The goal is to do a great job, once and for all, and be done with basic setup."></outline>
			<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 15:48:16 GMT" pgfnum="1513" text="3. I do a seminar at NYU showing people how to set up their own server. That's what I'm driving for. A human-tested and proven server setup that runs an aggregator, designed for reporters and professors and J-school students. "></outline>

				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 12:45:09 GMT" pgfnum="1485" text="I wanted posting to be simpler and faster because I do a lot of it. I wanted the posting process to be in a &lt;a href=&quot;http://scripting.com/images/2011/09/06/popuwindow.gif&quot;&gt;popup window&lt;/a&gt; that goes away when you post. And that's now how it works. "></outline>
				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 12:47:55 GMT" pgfnum="1487" text="There's a new Post command at the beginning of the menu at the top of the screen. It opens the popup window. As does the bookmarklet and the RT command, and the Edit icon on the History page. When you want to create or edit a post, it's done in the popup window. So this is probably a change for pretty much everyone who uses Blork."></outline>
				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 13:02:19 GMT" pgfnum="1494" text="The History function which used to be fairly well buried at the bottom of the post dialog, now has its own menu command."></outline>

				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 12:56:56 GMT" pgfnum="1491" text="It had been a long time since the Prefs system that Blork uses had gotten an overhaul and it needed one. Time waits for no one, as the Stones used to sing. And it was time to re-do this. I hope you'll agree it looks stunning now. "></outline>

				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 13:31:58 GMT" pgfnum="1502" text="1. You must install the new Bookmarklet. The old one no longer works. (AC: I added the popup menu to the popup window, so you can use it to post to multiple feeds.) You can find a link to the Bookmarklet on the Docs page."></outline>
				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 13:32:18 GMT" pgfnum="1503" text="2. There are some glitches in the display of some pages. We will fix these over time."></outline>
				<outline created="Tue, 06 Sep 2011 13:33:33 GMT" pgfnum="1504" text="3. If you're running a server you must update: opml.root, beaut.root, river2.root and radio2.root. The RIver2 UI has already been transitioned, as has the OPML Editor admin interface."></outline>
