At the begining, Ghost was supposed to be a fork of WordPress. Then there was a talk of a plugin, that would give a next-generation admin panel for WordPress. But in the process it became a new blogging platform, built on Node.js. This plugin is an attempt to bring the nice and clean admin panel of Ghost back to the WordPress ecosystem.

Why I cannot add/remove categories
You can add categories since v0.4. Taxonomy manager is coming in next release
Why do you require PHP 5.3?
PHP 5.3 is not required anymore. Since v0.4.0 Gust has the same requirements as WordPress itself.
Are you affiliated with Ghost
No, I am not. This is an unofficial port, hence the different name.
Where is the X feature
This is an early release, so some features are not present, yet. They will be, later on, if the plugin gets enough interest.
