Hi,

Am writing a blog Client myself bTonga @ http://www.nomoa.com/index…. but it may have that hefty requirement (requires .NET 2.0) that you are hitting.

it does however support some of your other requirements.

* Upload Files
* Custom Tags (Keywords?)
* Source Editing (although it gets pretty mangled at the moment)
* Wysiwig Editing (do you have that on your list?)
* Access/Edit old posts in a rational manner
* Standalone
* No Preview (although it does support styles for the GUI Editor view)
* No setting for choosing BR or P (I’ll have to look at that, never thought it an issue before)

* Some other features?
– Open Source BSD License (as in the code is available for download beside the link for the installer)
– Queued uploads (i.e. You can set files for upload and queue it until you have time to push it up)
– Option to use Metaweblog XMLRP NewMediaObject or normal FTP for uploads
– Support SSL for FTP Uploads (part of the .NET 2.0 requirement)

If it’s interesting, take alook and give me some feedback (although if the .NET 2.0 is a serious limitation for you then apologies for taking up your time.)
