From the Akismet blog:

We’ve been getting several reports of errors with Akismet after people upgrade to Movable Type 3.31. To be honest we’re not Perl hackers so if you have any clues what might be causing the error and we’ll update this entry with information on a workaround or a new version of the plugin.

Six Apart has announced the release of Movable Type 3.3 together with  Movable Type Enterprise especially designed for business use. And to sweeten the deal there are discount prices for Business and Free for Personal Users.

So whats Movable Type Enterprise?

Of course, we’re not content to just repackage a personal blogging tool with a different price tag and call it an enterprise application. IT and IS departments have a tightly defined set of expectations and requirements that we’ve come to understand from the thousands of customers already using Movable Type.

For that reason, we’ve made Movable Type Enterprise available with exclusive features for integrating with the platforms enterprises depend on. We’ve also expanded our support offerings with priority support for enterprise customers, backed by the best support team in blogging, offering years of experience in supporting business blogs.
