Taking a break from Drupal

I just noticed Movable Type 3.11 has been released. That means

  1. We're past the developer release stage
  2. The first bug fixes have been made

This is good because I let my MTClient development blog die. See, I forgot I have MTBlacklist installed over there and I installed 3.0D on top of it, and things worked but were a little wonky.

Now I get to restart it, and start working on MTClient version 2.0...which may have to be renamed. Since I'll need it to work with Drupal as well I may wind up making it a universal client. I guess I need to see how stalled Atom is…

I'm really pleased with MTClient 1.60-full power of MT and a VERY clean UI. And I've learned a lot testing the various lightweight CMSes; I think I've come to understand almost all the issues that make it difficult to write a truly universal client for these systems. And I have ideas on resolving, like, all of them.

Anyway, I still have functionality and configuration issues with P6 and the Niggerati Network and I'm still waiting for version 4.5 of Drupal so I'll still be working in PHP. But I've been missing Delphi recently, and I really prefer writing desktop software. Lots more options, control and responsiveness.

Yeah, there should be a lot of interesting developments with MT 3.11. I have a copy of it installed to play around with but my main site is still on 2.661 because it's so full of hacks and customizations that I just haven't gotten around to doing the upgrade. Yeah, that's stupid. Sue me. ;-)
