I've recently developed a Python-based blogging system named Snurf  
(<http://bdash.bluewire.net.nz/2004/08/02/snurf-a-python-based- 
blogging-system/>).  I've tried to KISS when writing Snurf as my  
previous attempts along similar lines have ended up being  
over-engineered.  The current version uses the file system as the data  
store, but it is designed so that adding, eg. a database backend,  
should be relatively simple.

While I have not officially "released" Snurf yet, the source code is  
available from my Subversion repository at  
<http://bdash.bluewire.net.nz/svn/snurf/trunk/>.  See  
<http://bdash.bluewire.net.nz/2004/08/28/snurf-source-available-via- 
subversion/> for more information on obtaining the source.
