Dotclear 2 (dc2) is still under development but it is now stable enough for my little blog. The development team is doing a real great job. The backend rocks, it is a pleasure to work with the new interface. A lot of new features have been added (finally the tags are here )and the customization is a piece of cake.

The GeShi code highlighter has been ported by l’Alex. You can fetch it from here.

There is a couple of issues on php 5.2.0, most of them are due to the get/set mess with references or arrays. I’m unsure about the reasons, but the error messages are too cryptic for me, I will try to figure it out later:

Indirect modification of overloaded property context::$comment_preview has no effect

As far as I understand, there is issues with get/set and array. But the code in the context class is very closed from what is available in the PHP manual, go figure… but later.

My new theme is based (99.99%) on Kozlika’s Giacomo, thank to him/her Many themes are already available for dc2, check them out here.

For the english speakers, please note that only the website is in french, the application is localized. It also uses mbstring and iconv for a better enconding support.
