Progress You Can See

For a few weeks now, I’ve been playing with Movable Type, porting my as-yet-unfinished Friends plugin from WordPress to MT. I’ve been interested in what’s happening in the MT development world for a while now, and this seemed a good way to find out.

Progress has been… stuttering. But I’ve got the basics in place – Editing and listing your contacts, and last night I got the template tags done so that I could build a basic blogroll widget (with XFN and hCard, oh my!).
