Aether is a wiki-esque CGI script for creating and editing Web pages and Weblogs via a Web interface. It consists of a single easy-to-install script and uses a simple markup language to lay out pages. Unicode is supported in both page text and URLs. It can produce Atom syndication feeds for each Weblog in a site. A simple revision tracking system allows previous versions of a page to be restored.

Release Notes: _code.py may now redefine any aspect of Aether's behavior, allowing Aether to be adapted to environments it doesn't explicitly support (such as HTTPS or mod_python) without having to fork the script. This release also includes some bugfixes.


Release Notes: In this version, options were added to the blog that allow multiple blogs on one page, or a topic filtered view of a blog (for example, a page for a specific project could have a sidebar listing blog entries relating to that project). This release also fixes some bugs in HTML generation.


Release Notes: A simple revision tracking system was added, allowing the viewing of or reversion to previous versions of a page. The interface for editing pages and attaching files was improved.


Release Notes: This release included new tags for modifying the style sheet and inserting a table of contents. There were also new options to append to, prepend to, or replace sidebars and page headings. Layout (sidebars, heading, style-sheet, etc) can be specified for a whole site, then overridden for individual pages or subdirectories. Locking was added to prevent simultaneous writing to files.


Release Notes: This release works as an Apache ErrorDocument and may be overlaid on an existing HTML site.
