Welcome to the project website for the Loquacity project. Loquacity is a simplified blogging application, suited for non-technical and technical users alike. Its aim is to remain simple, yet powerful. Loquacity enables you to talk to the world in an easy way, using the method you prefer: text, audio, visual and more.

Based on the bBlog blog engine, Loquacity is a furtherance of the project under new leadership and vision. We thank eadz and the original bBlog developers for the fine foundation of ideas and effort they composited in bBlog.

Accreditation

Thanks to the wonderful Roxanne Leach who put together the old site design in record time. She even made it simple to provide web pages in different languages. If you need site design, Roxanne Leach is highly recommended. (Note: Any problems with the display are caused, not by her, but your editor.). Unfortunately, the design has been accidentally deleted. We will hopefully bring it back in due time.

We welcome three new project members: titanium_geek, stan, and xushi. titanium_geek comes to us from the bBlog forums where she was adept at forum moderation, especially during the months when the project was nigh abandoned. She has graciously agreed to join us at Loquacity as a forum moderator.

Our second new member, stan, joins the project with experience in Pascal and PHP. He is helping put the source tree into GPL compliance along with many other important items.

Our third member, xushi, comes from the bBlog project where he was a developer and beta tester.
