"I love you guys, but I hope you don't mind if I shop around first."

Movable Type (the software I use to maintain this weblog) announced the release of a new version yesterday, and perhaps more significantly, a new pricing scheme. Naturally, all hell has broken loose among the user community. What would once have been an automatic decision has become a difficult one; I'll have to think long and hard about whether to upgrade, or even whether to continue using the software. I may have more to say on the matter later. In the meantime, MeanDean has the most reasonable commentary (or at least the one that best matches my impressions) on the matter I've seen so far.
