Regarding OpenSearch support, it looks like Camino 1.6, which was just announced a few days ago, should also support.

Wonderful news Anil!

Congratulations for acquiring Apperceptive! I am pretty sure that this will bring it an excellent set of skills and features for upcoming MT(OS) versions

As a company proving ‘Movable Type Consultancy Services’ we’re not afraid of competition, but rather delighted to hear that one of us has been acquired by Six Apart. This could only motivate us to move forward and do an even better job

Congratulations for the other projects you’re working on ;)

I’m going to be posting my take on this later on, but regarding your question about the threat of competition some MT-focused consulting firms and developers might feel, I want to say very clearly that it’s simply not the case and I for one am ecstatic over the move.

In fact, external developers, designers and consulting firms who make up the MT Professional community will be part of the engine that powers 6A services. In essence, Six Apart is using its natural position at the crossroads of the software, the customers and the consultants to erase the friction that **currently** exists. Six Apart services does as much to make *us* successful as it does to make MT and MT customers successful. This is in fact a win-win-win situation.

Game changing indeed and we’re on the winning side. My congratulations Six Apart! This is fantastic news across the board!
