Lyceum - multi-blog WordPress
January 29th, 2006
Greetings. This will be my first year attending SXSW and I am looking forward to it.
I am currently the developer of Lyceum, a multi-blog derivative of WordPress. Lyceum development is funded by ibiblio, which you may know as the home of Project Gutenberg, Groklaw, etree.org, and thousands of other non-profit websites.
Lyceum has yet to be released. The initial release of the code will be very soon, March 1 or earlier. Leave any questions about the project in the comments below, I’d love to hear what other people think.
Here is a true, everyday person, question. Will Lyceum be a free service?
Lyceum is actually not a service, it is a free software package. It is licensed under the GPL. Anyone may download, modify, distribute, and use it. It is designed to be appropriate for deployments with 2 or 200,000 blogs.
