I agree with you completely about the calendar, I have changed that a while ago. It looks like you are working with a version that I release just after porting MiniBlog. It was a completely JSP oriented tool, and I tried to re-organize it with Struts. It was less than perfect, but it was a good place to start. It has since evolved quite a bit.

I thought this weblog looked very familiar. I can see you've already put a lot of work into this, but you might want to consider looking at the latest version of PersonalBlog.

To create the blogging section of the site I looked for yet another open source project for code to base my development. I tried both Roller and Personal Blog because they were based on Struts. Roller is quite extensive since it is capable of being set up at a hosting site for several people to use - it is a collection of Struts, Velocity, Hibernate, Castor and others. It was a bit complicated but I may use some of the code.
So I used the code from Personal Blog by Niel Eyde. It is a Struts based weblogger but I changed most of it because it is the opposite design model than the one I use. Most of the java is in the jsp and most the html is in the java - so I wrote my own jsps and am rewriting the Struts action classes. The calendar code is as is - very tough to move the html out of the action class onto the jsp. Also adding DAO objects changing the database layer.
