What's in the Water Over at Six Apart? »
Intrepid readers of RSS feeds may have noticed an odd happening in the Movable Type Community Blog the other day - unfortunately you can't actually read it if you check the site now, you would have had to catch it in your feed-reader (or your feed-reader would have had to catch it for you, or you'll have to catch it later on in this entry). Product Manager Byrne Reese remarked Since the day we released Movable Type Open Source more than a year ago.
Everyone catch that? Apparently according to Byrne, MTOS came out sometime before June 3rd, 2007. Yet, the official announcement of a stable release was on January 28, 2008, and Anil Dash made the GPL licensing announcement on December 12, 2007 (my birthday, but that doesn't matter). How the heck did Byrne lose more than six months? I'm all for being on "Internet Time", but this is a little bit much, isn't it?
