SixApart has finally released Movable Type 3.0, no wait that was the Developer Edition. My inital reaction is, much displeasure. As they have said it is really a featureless upgrade, just TypeKey and admin interface changes. On top of that the free version becomes cripleware, one author three blog limit. The now paid for version gets confusing pricing/liscensing scheme. Actually seems like a way to drive folks to TypePad more than anything.
I don’t blame SixApart for trying to make a buck, I have already donated $50, but do they have to do it is such a confusing and featureless way? Definately, on top of some other issues, makes me reevaluate other package or rolling my own.
NSLog() has some good thoughts as well.
