Movable Type 3.1 - the general release - will be released on August 31. I'm planning to buy an unlimited non-commercial license and install it.
I haven't worked out yet exactly how we're going to manage the transition. I need to play with it a bit first to see how compatible it is. I'll set up a test environment so that people can try out their own templates and see whether it works. Once we've done that we'll see how we want to organise the move.
At least it's not going to cost $4000 to upgrade:
Do I qualify as a "Personal User?"Posted by Pixy Misa at August 27, 2004 04:18 AMIf you're an individual whose blogs don't support a commercial endeavor, you can use the Personal Use license. (Incidental revenue such as Google AdSense, Amazon Associates fees, PayPal tip jars, or other similar programs which aren't the main purpose of the site are allowed under the personal license.)
ted's right (again).
Also what are the benefits of MT 3.1 over where we are now? Just curious...
Posted by Simon at August 27, 2004 10:01 AMUh, the tip jar is coming.
And MT 3.1 has more, um, thingies. Yep, thingies. Definitely.
(Apparently the new MT Blacklist for MT 3 is very nifty.)

(sorry, that just always bugs me)
Of course, waiting for the tip jar...
Posted by Daniel at August 27, 2004 12:18 PMWhy run Nortonal Person Firewell if it's that braindead?
Posted by Pixy Misa at August 27, 2004 01:05 PMIt's so good at blocking ads and at all the other fun personal firewall stuff. I don't know why it has a problem with MT 2, but you can't do any rebuilding if it is enabled. I thought all of that stuff was server-side, so it's just weird...
Posted by Daniel at August 27, 2004 05:53 PMYay! 3.1 I'm so psyched. I was going to ask you about this, but I know you're so busy with stuff that I felt really guilty. Do you have a paypal account that we can contribute to...if not for the program, the beer to help you through the installation?
Posted by Linda at August 29, 2004 02:47 PMerm, well there is loads of templately goodness that needs to be massaged to get mt2.6 templates to play nice with v3. Aside from that*, the upgrade is pretty damn easy...
*ie having to edit every single template by hand!
