I tracked down where the nightly builds are.  At one point I was downloading the source code and compiling it myself... but there's no need:

I had to turn off the trackback service in my blog today.  I am just getting too much trackback spam.

A few weeks ago I added support for comment Gravatar icons in dasBlog.  This by no means indicates that it will be included in DasBlog as there may be some additional work required.  I finally had time to submit the code to the dasBlog folks for there review.  Here is an example of what it looks like:

This weekend I added support in DasBlog for Gravatar icons/images next to posted comments.  When I have time later this week I will send Scott the information to see if they are interested.

It didn’t help much that the Gravatar dns lookup failed all weekend.  But I was able to do a whois on gravatar.com and get their name server and query it for their ip adders.  Ahh the things us developers do to implement even the silliest of features.

Update:  7/30/2005 Well I've been a little too busy to get the source code off to the DasBlog folks, but in due time. :)
Update:  7/31/2005 Ok, I made it a point to get the source code sent off today for review. Click here for a screen shot.

I downloaded the latest dasblog source code, compiled it, and upgraded my version. Let's just hope I copied over the correct files... nothing more, nothing less.

I found out how to make nested categories in dasblog.  When you add a new category us the vertical pipe character as a delimiter between master and sub-categories.  For example: Database|Oracle.

In order for them to display properly, you must have a blog item in both the master category and sub category.

I’m giving blogjet a try.  I’ve tried w::bloggar but it doesn’t handle images well at all and that’s an understatement.  We’ll see if blogjet can hold its own.

It sure would be nice if BlogJet could copy images to a folder instead of using ftp.

I just installed Das Blog 1.7.5016.2, so far so good.  I wish I could find a theme/skin that I liked.
