I've just read about the Enlightened Perl Organisation's initiative to make Perl more visible through blogging. I've also read Matt S. Trout's rant about this topic and it convinced me to revive me 2 year old Perl blog (containing only one post). So here I am, decided to start my blogger career for the sake of showing what Perl actually stands for.
The first step I had to take was moving the blog from blogger.com to a more flexible Perl based opensource solution hosted on my own server. I've looked and found only two options: Blosxom and MovableType. The first one is very lightweight and has lots of plugins, the second one has lots of functionality out of the box. If I where to go with Blosxom i knew for sure that while searching for the right plugins I would get lost and abandon the blogging project (again). So I chose MovableType.
What other Perl based blog software do you know ? Anything opensource based on Catalyst for example ?
