[TxMt] OT: Wordpress alternatives?

[Constantinos Neophytou ♎]

Another plugin to look at for spam is Bad Behavior (http://www.bad- 
behavior.ioerror.us/)

Also as far as upgrading the blog goes, I too had serious issues with  
copying those files, sometimes giving up on my local modifications  
because I couldn't take the time to track all the changes I had made  
down. However all that changed when I started upgrading through  
subversion. Simply do a checkout of the most recent stable release  
(right now it's http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.1.2 ) and  
hack away. When a new version comes out, you can simply svn switch  
http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.1.3 for example, and  
you're done :)
