Six Apart just announced the release of Movable Type Open Source — MTOS for short.
Movable Type Open Source (MTOS) is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. So, if you’re a fan of open source application, it is a good news. Previously, when Six Apart whispered this open source package, many people wondered how this open source version will be different from the other MT packages. Six Apart said that all features in MT 4.0 can be found in MTOS edition — it has the same functionality. Anyway, what it’s all about? Here are some points you should know:
- MTOS is our abbreviation for the open source version of Movable Type. It’s a full-featured version of Movable Type which you can download, use, modify, share, and explore completely free of charge.
- Movable Type has always had all of its source code freely available for review, from its first release.
- There’s no change for any of the commercial versions of Movable Type or any of the products built on top of MT.
- MTOS will be community-supported, while paying users will always have exclusive access to our professional support team.
- MTOS is complemented by the paid software products we sell on top of the MT platform, such as our Enterprise Solution, Community Solution and personal and commercial licenses which include support.
- The nightly builds are always available.
- The package also available from SVN repository:
