Since releasing Lifer 0.3 in January I’ve released six more minor versions to get the project stable enough to start using. The changelog entries don’t make the releases sound that interesting, but as an end user I’m much happier with the build performance, the tag support, and Lifer’s awareness of original publication and last updated dates.

Note to readers subscribed via a newsfeed: sorry if the feed has spammed you with new entries spanning the many years of this blog's existence. My Jekyll feed's settings were bad, and it seemed not worth it to me to make the feed's transition any more graceful.

benjaminwil.info looks and feels the same way it always did, but it’s no longer being generated by Jekyll–but by Lifer. There’s still plenty to do before I could cut a v1.

Lifer definitely has swerved out of the Jekyll clone lane into the could be a good and unique site generator someday lane, and I’m excited about some upcoming features that make it even more flexible for people who are willing to write a commit a bit of Ruby to their site repository.
