Also, I wanted to let you know that I’ve written a patch to the upload.module of Drupal so that Drupal can be used for Podcasting. I’ve used it on one CivicSpace 0.8 site. Since CivicSpace 0.8 is essentially a customized version of Drupal 4.5, I suspect it should work there as well. Check out http://www.orient-lodge.com/index.php?q=node/view/169 if you are interested.

You do know that Drupal has an url aliasing feature in path.module which works directly when adding/editing a post?

Thanks for the hurrah, James. But I have to point out that I didn’t write the mods for putting enclosures in WP, I just found a tool that worked and passed the message on to others. Just following the Tao of Blogging! ;^)

Randy, the zip file with the mods you will need are found at http://www.ipportunities.nl/wordpress/index.php?p=49 and my instructions for how to install them (or at least how I installed them) are at http://stigmergicweb.org/index.php/archives/2004/11/25/adding-enclosures-to-wordpress

Had fun messing around with GarageBand for the intro. Was going for a relaxed jazzy kinda thing. Not completely happy with it, but it will give me something to play with over the weekend ;-)

I’ve been meaning to try out the WordPress 1.3 version from CVS, but haven’t had the mental bandwidth to go through an install at the moment (and 1.2.1 + the enclosures hack works fine for now)

I’m not to sure I understand your first sentence. Enclosure have been in word press for a bit now. Yes it been in the CVS version but it has been there. I know of at least 1 person who has been using them for more then a month and I myself have just started to use them in my word press blog. The enclosures are quite stable and the CVS version are not to bad to handle at all.
