WordPress Merges with Textpattern

Written by Jon on April 1, 2006 – 1:12 pm



WordPress Merges with Textpattern, announced just this morning on WordPress.org. It will now be called WordPattern, and can be found at http://www.wordpattern.org.

This is a huge deal, helping position WordPress in the with the top blog tools like Blogger and MovableType (MT). I love Word Press and have used it for more than 8 of my own clients, so this really pleases me.

On behalf of the WordPress community, I’m proud to announce a merger we’ve had on our minds since the first time we saw Dean Allen’s dog — WordPress and Textpattern are joining forces to create the greatest CMSMS ever, WordPattern. “WordPress and Textpattern: Two great tastes that taste great together.” - WordPress.org
