What’s going on

Well, you know. It’s September; I should have an exam on Tuesday.

I say I should because my professor said to come and see; if there’ll be too many people I’ll have to come another day. D’oh.

By the way, don’t worry, I’m working on it :)

I have little bad news for translators, erm. I had to clean up how strings were arranged, so, (cough), you may find it a bit messy. Sorry about that, really, anyway the changes I did in the backend, did require it.

I’m also thinking about a way to make easier for you the translation, but I fear I should write something like a wiki system myself (even though we *do* have a wiki, but it might not be enough).

Moreover, I was talking to Hydra a few days ago and we were reasoning around the file format for language files; maybe using YAML might be a nice idea.

The format is so nice at the eyes I even thought it could be the new FP file format (instead of the plain txts with KEY|value|KEY|value format) for the future.

We’re even thinking about a new syntax for the blog entries.

If you know Markdown and Textile, well, it will be something along those lines.

All came from how to write footnotes, and bold text.

You may want to follow the discussion on SPBItalia . Italian. Yes, a bit my bad, but a bit yours, I don’t get any feedback from the mailing list subscribers. If you want to join the discussion you are welcome to drop a line both on the forum and both via the ML :)

Meanwhile, you can join this great new initiative:

To be classified as a lemon under Lemon Law a vehicle must have a continuing defect that substantially impairs its use, value, or safety

For the Italian people who are still wondering if I’m really so odd that I want a yellow car looking like a juicy citrus, lemon car is the English for catorcio (/cah-tor-tcho/) :D

You know, life is hard when you’re on foot. Even though “I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bicycle, I want to…” *cough* :D

So, if you want to help the FlatPress project (and help a bit me :D) make a donation with PayPal :P

Money will help us paying domains, web spaces; but most of all we’ll know that you value our project (don’t worry, we know you do ;))
