The March 2002 changelog for my other blog software candidate (Nucleus) gives me joy because it includes this line:

Added: "shared computer" checkbox on login. Checking this box will make your cookie expire at the end of the session (instead of taking the global site setting) (see forum)

In direct contrast to the WordPress attitude that users should just remember to logout. If I wasn't so focused on getting Steph's blog up and running securely I'd join the WP forum just so I could ask why they'd dismissed the possibility of, say, a power outage or other non-user-controlled event ending a session. Huh?

Methinks it boils down to either inexperience or it's too complicated to figure out this late in the game for the dev team.

Glad I looked into Nucleus a little further. Let's hear it for skepticism and thoroughness. Oh, and high expectations.

Now for some reality checking. (What they say isn't always what you get.)
