... deploying BlogEngine.NET (your looking at it atm) and playing with some elements of the BlogEngine source code - Which whilst wonderfully functional - is somewhat lacking in quality. 

Cases in point: 

  • No unit tests....  (what? are we to just assume alterations to functionality just work?)
  • Isn't exactly optimized... (yes, with 10 minutes work, I already increased the speed of several areas by upto a factor of 3...)
  • Contains very little to no comments... or change history... (Who was that masked coder??)
  • the XML technology isn't well implemented... Big glaring example... schema anybody?

About Matt R.Warren

MeMy name is Matt and I am the current tenant of this small corner of the internet. I mostly architect, design and prototype applications that use .NET with C# and a little C++/CLI for Enterprise although I am aware of and enjoy fully embracing Java based solutions and alternatives such as Mono/Linux.  

I have worked on projects ranging from small tools to large distributed real-time Enterprise systems ranging from EPOS and real-time/JIT stock management systems, to distributed applications for National/International Utility, Healthcare, Insurance and Finance  in the private sector in both the USA and the EU.
