Mephisto 0.8.2 is now available on the download page!
Mephisto’s JavaScript is in much better shape, and most of the remaining “tainted string” errors should now be fixed. The default article and comment filter is now Textile (instead of raw HTML), and our gem management has been cleaned up.
Many thanks to the Mephisto contributors brought you this release: Chris Cummer, James McCarthy, Matthias Lüdtke, Sean O’Brien and Gustavo Sales (who wrote the first version of the theme homepage fix).
Thanks also go to Chris Cummer for investigating Mephisto multisite caching issues. For information on setting up multisite, please see
Mika Tuupola’s blog post and the thread on the MephistoBlog group. Alternatively, you can disable multisite support in config/initializers/custom.rb.
We’re actively working on a simpler solution for multisite caching. In particular, we’re looking into writing a custom Rack module under Rails 2.3. If you’re interested in helping, please join us on #mephisto. Contributors are always welcome!

awesome, thanks for all the hard work everyone put into this release.
Just starting with Mephisto and have the latest version. I’m having trouble with the tzinfo gem; I’ve tried everything the internet has to offer. Is there any fix available for this? Essentially, I’m getting it working on my webserver except for the “settings” tab in the admin section. When I go to settings, I get an error. Locally, it all runs just fine. On my server, I’ve added tzinfo to the vendors/gems folder, I’ve raked everything, I just can’t get anything to work.
Here’s the error in the log: ActionView::TemplateError (uninitialized constant TZInfo::Timezone::TimezoneProxy) on line #32 of app/views/admin/settings/index.html.erb:
Does anybody have any idea?
I wrote up a how-to for deploying Mephisto 0.8.2 on Site5. Check it out if you are trying and having issues.

We have begun playing with Mephisto…seems to show a ton of promise…who do we talk to about contributing either code or documentation…who do I get in contact with. Holla….Scott

That’s some good changes. Thank you all for you effort!
