Without a lot of noise there is a new version of everybody’s favourite blog engine – Typo. It including also an installer, which lets us following the no-step3-way :

$ gem install typo
$ typo install /tmp/typo

Like always with RoR, there is no step 3 ;) you have you blog ready to go.

What else give us the new Typo:

• no need to downgrade your Rails environment – working without problems with the current Rails version
• production ready – the new installer making mass-producing pretty easy – creating database(sqlite3 by default), choosing the random port etc.
• Mongrel friendly – it started mongrel_rails, not webrick. Can be changed from installer/rails_installer_defaults.yml
• jabber and email notifications – that one is pretty good I think. I need to study more the implementation.
