Scoop ported to modern Perl and Linux. I hope to one day see that happen. I got a friend who worked on it and gave instructions on how to port it. I just been too busy to work on it myself.

- augb 10y agoWhat about Scoop makes it worth resurrecting?
- orionblastar 10y agoIt was a Slashdot/Slashnet clone that was used by a lot of Liberal Democrats like Howard Dean. Rusty Foster would create websites for them using Scoop. The Daily Kos used to be Scoop based. Scoop has a good history, and should be upgraded and persevered to modern technology. No doubt it would run faster on a Linux VPS with a small amount of RAM than Wordpress or some other blog. Wordpress once was B2, and someone saved B2 and renamed it Wordpress. The same can be done with Scoop.
