I wonder what is really going on with the people at Six Apart, but big changes are happening all over the place. First they sold LiveJournal to a big Russian company, and now they launched an Open Source version of Movable Type… Meaning it is FREE again. It can be modified, distributed, etc.. etc… for free.
I think it’s wonderful. I was one of those people who became so familiar and comfortable with MT, that I installed every single plugin available without fear of messing things up. I tweaked every template, created my own and installed it for other people… it was fun! Then I stopped blogging, then someone hooked me to WordPress. And while I am almost 100% I’m not going to switch back to MT, I would like to give it a try.
Who knows, after a few years… Anyway, it’s free again. Open Source!
