Release 0.3a

Hello,

we released SnipSnap 0.3a.

SnipSnap release 0.3a

SnipSnap is an easy to install and easy to use weblog and wiki system 
written in Java.
The biggest new featurue in 0.3a is that we moved to a CSS based layout 
and now support themes.
Every user can now easily change the layout and look of his weblog and 
wiki. SnipSnap
ships with some default themes, some of them inspired by other weblog 
tools to make transition for
those users easier.

We added a plugin architecture to SnipSnap which makes it easy to add 
macros. Just drop a jar into
the server directory and snipSnap uses your own macros. There is no 
longer a need to change the source
code of SnipSnap. There is a small tutorial to write your own macros at
http://snipsnap.org/space/Macro+Tutorial and how to write List 
Formatters
http://snipsnap.org/space/List+Formatter+Tutorial+1
