site news

unreasonable.org has now been upgraded to Drupal 6. For those reading my ruminations via Facebook, Myspace, Yahoo, etc., there should be no changes, they'll still import my RSS feed. For anyone viewing the site directly, I'll be cleaning up old spam comments and stories, and adding new features in the days to come.

We're in the middle of upgrading our version of Drupal, the software that runs the site. It's a good thing but it will make a mess for a while. Sumimasen.

Due to a Drupal bug in support for PostgreSQL, we couldn't allow anonymous users to submit stories. I've found a patch for that bug, so now you won't have to register before submitting a story to us.

So - see something interesting? Feeing unreasonable? Tell us about it.

After a few hours of Drupal hacking, I've integrated the files archives from the old site into our new setup. Enojy!

• Tom's USENET posts archive
• Drug policy files archive
• Animal Rights files archive
• Vegetarian Info files archive

For many years I've been maintaining a guide to shoes and other goods made without leather. The Leather Substitutes Resource Guide has gone without revisious for far too long - a new version is now available.

Welcome to the reborn unreasonable.org!

Bringing you commentary, opinion, news, and other stuff I feel like. Once we're fully set up, you'll be able to register to comment on articles here, or ever submit your own. -Tom Swiss, proprietor, unreasonable.org
