Movable Type Goes Open Source

Posted by kdawson on from the blog-this dept.

jamie forwarded a link to the announcement that Movable Type has been released as open source under the GPLv2. Here's the FAQ. Given that Wordpress, textpattern, and many others have been open source for years, how big a splash will Six Apart's announcement make?

    Perhaps Movable Type could benefit from the SubLCD subpixel rendering, which is free and unpatented.

    PS: I do have a method for removing colour spatter, but it is not implemented yet, and it is also different from what I have seen elsewhere. Is this sufficiently important that I should implement it?
