Hopefully you’ll see more regular posts from us in the future.
We’ve moved Rail Spikes to a new server all by itself because the performance was terrible. Posting was very frustrating because saving posts would take forever and often fail with proxy timeout errors. Now, things are a lot more snappy.
I’ve also upgraded the site to Mephisto 0.8 which has a few new features. There may still be some kinks to work out, so let me know if you see any problems with the site!


hey, nice job. looks good so far!
Hey, where is Mephisto 0.8? I only see 0.7.3 on the Mephisto site, as it has been for ever so long.
You have to get it from their Git or Subversion repository. It was announced on caboose but the website hasn’t been updated for whatever reason.
