I want to put up my own blog server.
What is available? I have searched the our 'standard' 3rd party repos and have not noticed anything...
The best featured and easiest to setup blog software would have to be wordpress. You can download it at www.wordpress.org - it requires apache + php + mysql.
There's a hell of a lot of support for it, and it's very quick to get going.

I pulled down the tarball for WordPress on 27 November and had it up and running fairly quickly (but not within their "five minute" install). Appropriately, I documented why it took me a little longer on my blog once it was running: http://davenjudy.org/wordpress/?p=9
