I dislike Octopress for several reasons:

- No proper attribution to code that they clearly didn't write themselves. It's not that hard people.

- Time could be better spent making the Jekyll docs clearer. The time they spent creating this could have gone into official documentation efforts and creating a better default in the core

- Would be nice if they could add chuck those plugins into their own repository. That way it would be possible to add them to the plugin list I created on the official Jekyll Wiki

I also wish it had a better base template, but I'm no designer, so what the hell do I know.

Completely agree on #2, having better defaults (a base template and basic things like an archive/categories page) would make switching to jekyll a lot easier. If it wasn't for your plugins (thanks) my switch to jekyll would have been surely postponed until i figured out how to write a plugin for the missing functionalities...
