+ [2013-09-16T14:39:18Z] jolleyjo_ thanks for the answers pontiki... what exactly do the octopress plugins provide vs github jekyll? I am trying to decide if I need octopress or just stock jekyll
+ [2013-09-16T14:40:17Z] jolleyjo_ nvm, I see the plugins here: http://octopress.org/docs/

jolleyjo_: the main difference between bare jekyll and octopress is the octopress makes heavier use of plugins, which do not work on github pages.
+ [2013-09-18T21:34:11Z] jolleyj__ hey guys... any tips on how to apply the octopress theme without using octopress? :)
+ [2013-09-18T21:35:07Z] jolleyj__ my end goal is to run octopress on github pages without having to perform a rake for each publish :)
+ [2013-09-19T00:23:24Z] pontiki it's just sass
+ [2013-09-19T00:24:06Z] pontiki compile it when you make changes to it, otherwise it's just fine to include the resulting css file anywhere
