BookDot

Both in order to finally learn Zope, and to keep track of what I've read (I reached a state of acute shame when I discovered I had bought a new Chaucer when I already had two copies), I thought it would be a good idea to transmute Squishdot (see the nice logo at the bottom of these pages) into a book-review and comment thingy. So there.

Software

BookDot is based on SquishDot. Installation instructions are exactly the same, down to the requirement for TinyTables. SquishDot is based on Zope. This means that unless you have admin rights to a public Zope webserver, you cannot do anything with this software.

I've just done the first hacking week, and while everything works as I think it should, I wouldn't be surprised if I were adding features and bugs at a rate of knots.
