blosxom is in sarge/sid, and is really really simple. You can copy the
CGI that runs it onto your woody systems without trouble.
The downside I've found with using it for simple logs (daily network
status stuff at my work) is that it uses mtime on the blog entry file
for the date it displays for the entry. This means you can't go back and
edit older entries and keep them as entries for the original date (at
least not without timestamp trickery).
It should do the trick for you, John.
