Hmm, the black header looks a bit harsh, but the fonts look all right - when I heard they were going to use larger fonts in the back end, I had flashes of Wordpress and its Play-School-sized text.

Hi. I wonder what the brouhaha is about. Where truly are these “dozens of new features” other than a horizontal top navigation layout that looks like WP’s, and a Flash file ‘dashboard’ with text in ugly 8 point tahoma?

I do not see one new feature. User management is the same, rebuilding is now called republishing, entries are the same, display options are the same, templating is the same….hooh, this is tiring.

Where is custom field possibility that would make us take MT seriously? MT 4 has only broken the two endeavors in that area — CustomFields and RightFields, the authors of both of which are scrambling to update their excellent software.

This three-year pending update may make sense to people who have been used to seeing the age-old MT admin interface, but to people who have experimented with alternatives, this is nothing home to write about.

“Curious strategy .. why “open source” now?
The MT4 “Open Source” page seems to imply that there will be two different versions of the product — as in two different branches — not just a “open” version and a commercial “support” version. ”
here is a Athena Component Plan
I think open source version will include only a few of these components.

This is extremely interesting. I guessed that Six Apart’s panicky pedophile witch-hunt to prevent bad publicity at the end of May was driven by a major event. This could be it. The timing sure is right.

You have to wonder if Matt Mullenwegg’s success with Wordpress.com helped push Mena and company in this direction, since it showed a model for making money, while making a successful publishing platform open-source.

Wow. No point repeating what’s already been said. I echo Martin Kelley’s comment, pretty much to the letter. Just… wow. I am so totally psyched.

as in two different branches — not just a “open” version and a commercial “support” version.
As I understand from a conference call earlier today, exactly what the open source version will be isn’t settled yet, and will be worked out as a part of the community work itself. Don’t read into this until you see an actual statement. But yes, one difference will be official support for the commercial product.

Three years between releases?
You make it sound as if there have been no releases at all, much less major ones(3.2 and 3.3x), in a solid three years. You are wrong. MT4 was originally going to be 3.4 until the changes apparently started piling up too high. Version numbers are marketing tools. Features are what matter, and plenty has happened in that time.

In a post-Twitter environment, MT4 seems like vicious overkill.
I have no idea what that’s even supposed to mean.

Not to highlight my own ignorance, but whoa, MT is written in Perl? That’s actually pretty awesome. I’m still a PHP guy at heart, but Perl is amazingly useful in a lot of cases.

Curious strategy .. why “open source” now?

The MT4 “Open Source” page seems to imply that there will be two different versions of the product — as in two different branches — not just a “open” version and a commercial “support” version.

After creating Wordpress’ marketshare with bad v3 licensing, 6A seemed to abandon its flagship product. (Three years between releases? Ick.)

Try and explain the difference between LiveJournal, Typepad, Vox, and MT to your closest non-nerd friend. The company feels like it has lacked focus lately.

In a post-Twitter environment, MT4 seems like vicious overkill.

I’ve been anxious to be among the first around the world to evaluate this project. Movable Type surprised me from the very first second.

For those of you interested on evaluating this new product without taking the time to install it on on your side, I’ve installed and made publicly
available a demo version.

Go and enjoy it at: http://www.movabletype4.org/

Many thanks to the great crew @ Six Apart and to the entire Movable Type Community for your continuous support on further improving this excellent publishing platform!

those are really great news. Been working with MT for more than 3 years I guess - and the sotfware is so reliable that I (almost superstitiously) fear trying anything else. but I can’t wait to test the beta, and see the changes on installation process. this could be really painful in some cases.

Thank goodness! Most of the websites I’ve developed over the last few years have had a MT base and frankly I’ve been wondering whether I bet on the wrong horse. I love MT and the flexibility it has but it’s felt like it’s been largely stalled out in limbo-land while 6A focused elsewhere (I’ve gotten most depressed when I’ve seen how few styles are available, esp. compared with all the Wordpress options). I hope this helps bring back the developer geeks. Thanks 6A!
