I've finally had the time to get to work on updating templates. You'll find that the daily and monthly archives are now in the new layout. There are still a few pages that use the old layout, but their number is dwindling, so hopefully you'll not see too many of those in the future.
Also, you may notice that I've removed the monthly archives from the sidebar. This does not mean that the archives have gone away - they haven't, and can still be accessed by "backing up" in your URL. For instance, say you are viewing The Angler Fish. The URL to this page contains 2003/07/21.
By deleting the end of the URL (for instance, removing the_angler_fish.html), that date is at the end of your URL, and you will see a page containing all the posts on that day. By further backing up through that URL, and removing the 21, you are taken instead to a monthly summary page. At some point in the future, you'll be able to get rid of the month and see a yearly summary as well, but that's still in progress, so your results may vary.
http://.../2003/07/21/the_angler_fish.html http://.../2003/07/21/ (entries for July 21, 2003) http://.../2003/07/ (entries for July 2003) http://.../2003/ (entries for 2003)
I've also stopped generating the RSS feeds for individual months. My apologies if you subscribed to these, but I don't think that many people do, based on my review of the logs. I finally decided that these feeds just don't make a lot of sense. The purpose of the feeds is to provide a snapshot of recent activity, and maintaining static versions of months past didn't seem to fit that purpose.
Full-site and category feeds are still available.
You may also notice that I've been working on the online documentation for my Movable Type plugins. It's a painstaking process (and one at which I don't particularly excel), but I'm trying to get there. Please bear with me. One day soon they should all be finished.
