Hi!

Syndication is somewhat begun. The plan is to do that with flavours. I 
have written a little plugin to strip all tags from the body and title, 
since RSS and Atom users might not like that. You could if you wish do 
the flavours. The plugin that will do the stripping is not in the cvs, 
but it is really simple, so I'll attach the source here.

Please make sure that the feeds validate.

I have not yet begun making a photo gallery for PHPBlosxom. However I do 
have a gallery written in PHP which could be used.

My main concern is documentation. I'd really like some comments on that.
In fact this is the first response I have gotten on the project :)

How did you find this project?

The things that are (partially in some cases) completed on my computer.

* MovableType style template. Almost complete.
* Trackback. Begun.
* The category list. I think that it should also list how many entries 
are in the selected category.

Things that are needed:

* A calendar plugin.
* A search plugin. Could perhaps be done with google?
* Syndication.
* Better documentation, both for users and developers.
