It has been less then 24 hours since we released Movable Type 4.2 and the feedback has been wonderful! I have been answering people's questions about upgrading, installing and migrating to Movable Type 4.2 all day -- its almost as if Movable Type and Movable Type Pro is the release everyone has been waiting for:

"this just keeps getting better and better" and "I know I have not been a regular blogger for quite a while, but this new version really makes me anxious to get going again and become a more regular blogger. Who knew Movable Type could also help you with that kind of problem?" -- Sara

"My jaw is down there lost somewhere under the table... great work." -- dug

"Just want to say WOW! The Pro license is great. Exactly what was needed for many like me, who has a commercial license, but not a business and needed more than 5 authors." -- Nicholas

"6Aers, MT Team, and community contributors: thank you. This is great work all should be congratulated. But more important than that, this is a fun new toy to play with! Yay!" -- Dan

"I am pleased that MT Pro is being released as a free (as in beer) upgrade as it essentially replaces the previously paid-for Movable Type Community Solution, and it makes MT stand out more over WordPress, which would probably need all manner of plugins to match MT Pro's full functionality." -- Neil

"With MT 4.2 I see my company being able to add more interactive features easily, as we'll be able to take advantage of php includes and the entire lifestream options." -- Michele

"Trust me on this one: When they say they improved the speed of the system, they meant it. My Movable Type install is burning up the Perl now." -- Corey

And more comments are streaming in. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy all over.

I upgraded from 4.12 to 4.2. The upgrade from 3.5 to 4.12 went flawlessly. So, this should be a simple thing, right? All the templates for my blog are gone. Cool! I didn't have anything else to do tonight.

Warm and fuzzy? Not so much. Thanks Six Apart.
