One of the things I love at Six Apart is that these guys are always working (pretty the same as I do).

I recall from Le Web 3, 4th edition in Paris, France, way back in December 1997 that Chris Alden (Six Apart CEO) and the other board members said to me:

'We are wondering if you even get some time to sleep! You're doing so many wonderful things.'

At that time we were talking about this 'movable type demo project' that I've initiated on June 2007.

Did Six Apart adopt my working fashion? It looks like... :)

They are always surprising me with launching new movable type versions and more and more features. I have no reasons to regret that I've chosen movable type and to advocate for it vs. wordpress.

Movable Type Motion Available For Demo

Last night they've launched movable type v4.25 which contains the motion extra feature!

Since motion is an excellent social feature, I cannot wait to reveal it to you here.

This being said, I'm delighted to invite you to have a look at movable type v4.25, both professional and open source versions.

Let me add one more thing! If you find this demo project helpful, please support it by giving my any movable type work or by making a paypal donation to info[at]pro-it-service[dot]com.

This morning Natalie Podrazik, Manager @ Movable Type Support announced movable type v4.24 on the movable type professional list (pronet).

This release was launched mainly to address a security issue that relates to the exposure of user profile data. This bug impacts the Community Pack code directly.

Together with this security issue fix, the new movable type version contains an improved Password Recovery mechanism. Now only an email address is required for MT to trigger the recovery email, making the Password Hint obsolete.

I've just upgraded our two movable type demo installations so that you could enjoy the new release.

Guys, we were in holiday until now and during this time, more specifically on December the 3rd, Six Apart announced Movable Type v4.23

This release is very important as it addresses a good number of bugs and security issues!

You are very welcome to start checking it out right away!

I've also noticed that the movable type commercial installation had some issues. Basically, after providing the username and password movable type was displaying an Error 500 message...

On the back end it was generating a dump core file measuring about 30 megabytes for each and every login attempts! Don't ask me how many dumps were in...

The problem has been fixed and you can now browse both the commercial and open source version of the latest released movable type v4.23. Enjoy!

These days everybody is interested on various programming jobs, from optimizing Movable Type driven Web sites to creating new blogs or online communities.

While I'm very pleased to satisfy all my customers and I'm truly thankful to them for bringing in more and more work, as well as more contacts, I'm again very pleased to let you evaluate the final release of Movable Type v4.01 which was just lunched last night.

I cannot wait to let you discover this release, so until Byrne and the rest of the Six Apart team will make it available online you are free to check it out here.

Time to give it a try live on this Web site!

I was out for a conference and business meeting in Germany from September the 11th till the 15th

During this time Six Apart already launched the Movable Type v4.01 RC 2 which is addressing a couple of bugs. For the entire change log click here: http://www.movabletype.org/beta/

Six Apart just launched a new Movable Type version last night. The Movable Type v4.01 Release Candidate 1 addresses a couple of issues that are documented at: http://www.movabletype.org/beta/

The update is recommended but not strictly required. What makes it worth trying ASAP is the fact that it is expected to increase performance in the overall application and publishing.

Six Apart recently launched Movable Type v4.01 beta 1 and beta 2 new versions.

Over these two betas the team behind Movable Type addressed the bug reports and patches provided by the community. The issues fixed were mostly related to problems during upgrading and migrating content from previous versions to Movable Type v4.0, but also to developers encountering problems on migrating their plugins to the new framework as well as building up some new and more innovative ones.

On a side note Six Apart announced that beta 2 is the last beta before launching Movable Type v4.01 which is going to happen in a relative short time frame as they started to get us used to.

Yahooooo! Celebration time for all Movable Type enthusiasts around the world!

Six Apart just launched today the Movable Type v4.0 know also as Athena Project final release. I must thank for the thousand time this year and not only this year, the team behind this publishing platform that I've got to love over time.

As a Movable Type consultant I've build up over 100 Movable Type driven Web sites and worked with very large as well as mid size organizations and private persons.

Since 2003 I've been addicted to this project and really enjoyed to use and hack it to adapt its publishing capabilities for all sort of purposes. Blogs, static-like Web sites, they were all powered by Movable Type and my sustainable preference for this solution.

I sincerely encourage everyone to give a try to this product right from this Web site, without having to worry about spending time on installing it, just to see what a great step ahead this completely rethought platform is.

As always, if you need professional consultancy on building up from scratch, improving or maximizing your Movable Type projects Search Engine Optimization performances look no further. Contact me and let's get it done!

As Movable Type Athena project gets closer for the final launch, Six Apart issued a new version, Release Candidate 4

Many thanks again to Byrne Reese and the whole team behind this excellent publishing platform for issuing a new package in less than 24 hours

Byrne didn't have the time to update the changelog yet, but he will do so within 12 hours
