I just got bored, that’s ENOUGH of all the spam overflowing from many places to my blog, so I decided to get rid of DotClear, and make my own blog engine.
This is probably going to take a bit of time (understand « a while », if I ever really start writing it) and it’ll probably require at least the latest version of PHP (understand PHP 5.3.0, or not).
This new stuff will provide a new system for trackbacks (they will be signed using an SSL key, and if someone trackbacks with a new – unknown – key, you’ll have to approve that key before), better comment management (ban a user/ip and all its posts will disappear, also spam detector included, and finally a few spam-detection and annoy-the-spammers systems).
Anyway stay tuned.
Btw if anyone can provide me with design, it’ll be welcome.

Spamclear, use it! I don’t have spam anymore since I configured it well, and after that it requires very little management. Also, why don’t you just write a plugin/mod of dotclear? I know you like to do all your stuff by yourself, but… that way you’d reach much more people.
As for design, I guess you could make your generated XHTML compatible with designs from DotClear/WordPress, as they are the two major blog engines out there, so they have plenty of free designs already. Just a suggestion.
Cheers.

Nice project!
I always though I should make my own blog engine too, but you know how lazy I am
And so I’m still using DotClear… (with a homemade antispam ;D)
