Working with an international team is really fun. Who wouldn't want to work with a group as creative as the Six Apart KK Movable Type Team?
Jeff, Nick, Bryan, Marc, DjChall and I spent the day Hacking MT & Vox.
Nick and I spend an hour working with Jeff to integrate a feature from Snapvine so that Vox users can add audio comments to their photos... we've still need to have the design team polish it, the product team approve it, and Jeff to finish a few features. Jeff and his coworker are hooking us up with some generous foobar enablers. Pondering whether we should have one blowout, or stretch it out over a few...
It's been a lot of work and a lot of fun, but we've finally "shipped" Movable Type 4.0
Go Team!
Many new features, but I'm most excited about the abstraction of the default templates which will make skinning MT super simple... partly because I did this part... and partly because it was the reason I always hesitant to use MT years ago.
Over the last 14 months I've had the opportunity to work with some brilliant colleagues here at Six Apart while leading the front-end development of Vox's blog templates and themes. It has been a great challenge and a fantastic experience.
As soon as we wrap up the last Vox features of 2006, I'll be joining the Movable Type team on the path to MT 4.0... it's gonna be awesome!
Six Apart is a great place to work.
