Platen is a Java library for working with Movable
Type blog databases. It is currently very simple,
and just a proof of concept for using Hibernate to
access a MySQL database backend for a Movable Type
blog with Java. But the intent is to eventually be
able to write an alternative front-end to that
database so it is not necessary to use the
Perl-based Movable Type software to render the
blog Web pages.
