Dirk Hesse mentions the release of Textpattern 4.9 stating
New version. How nice that this reliable CMS is only updated every few years and you can otherwise relax.
I consider this a joy.

That is a nice, short and sweet mention. I like that too.

One might also ponder the non-zero possility of Dirk’s approval to add some of his projects as specimens to the Textpattern showcase…

Re: Ligne Claire reports
A lovely thing to say. Yay. Although there will be two versions released within a month of one another, so…
As for the showcase, it needs updating so yes, any links to active projects are welcome.

Re: Ligne Claire reports
Dirk replied to my request for a contribution to the showcase, stating the following (my translation and summary; accidents may’ve happened):
Dirk’s mostly stepped back from CMS work, but he’s building a new site with Textpattern that might be showcase-worthy.
His real point: Textpattern is genuinely good software, but we struggle at promoting it. He’s noticed people moving to what they see as “more modern” alternatives. That stings every time.
The kicker: Kirby built themselves a fanbase. We haven’t. Our online presence is pretty thin.1
But he’s committed to writing a blog post about what actually makes Textpattern worth using – putting something back into the community.
—FIN—
