Retrospective
A brief history of the development history of brehaut.net.
Version 3.2
Jun 11 – present. Minor changes to 3.1; A new title and masthead, including a variation for the home page and archive pages, tightened up stylesheets and a few small improvements to the templating.
Version 3.1
Jan 11 – Jun 11 . Minor changes to 3.0; this update adjusted the bright background to something more readable on the majority of screens.
Version 3
Sep 10 – Jan 11. Third version of the site, porting the content over to Clojure and CouchDB from Python/Django and Postgres. Brand new, stripped back style. The other big change is that the Miscellany has been retired (and content mostly scrapped).
Version 2.1, 2.2
Mar 08 – Sep 10. Incremental changes bringing a tidier front page, tumblog style; a new blog, search and a new footer. The first major revision since the switch to Django. Updates included a return to a distressed look, better revision management in the wiki, bookmarks, and a front page with actual content.
Version 2
Dec 06 – Mar 08. A new site, built with Django Framework and Python featuring a new simple design and the initial use of orange everywhere. The blog was replaced with a wiki (called 'miscellany'). The bookmarks disappeared till 2.1.
Version 1
Nov 04 – Dec 06. A Wordpress and PHP Hackery powered blog. The distressed design proved difficult to work with, and hasn't dated well. A primitive bookmarks system was built on top of del.icio.us.
