MovableType.com is currently hard-coded into the translation files
located in /lib/L10N/ for both 6A and open-source versions of MT. I
would like to replace these references with a build variable similar
to PRODUCT_NAME and PRODUCT_CODE.
The product URL is mentioned throughout site output to advertise
Movable Type and provide appropriate metadata for search engines,
desktop authoring tools, or other interested parties. A blog running
MTOS should reference MovableType.org project and not the 6A
distribution. Bundles or forks may want to reference their own URLs
for purposes of identification and promotion.
Existing reference from en_us.pm:
'_MTCOM_URL' => 'http://www.movabletype.com/',
'_POWERED_BY' => 'Powered by <a href="http://www.movabletype.com/"><
$MTProductName$></a>',
Desired reference:
'_POWERED_BY' => 'Powered by <a href="<$MTProductURL$>"><$MTProductName
$></a>',
'_MTCOM_URL' would be deprecated in favor of the new variable.
Thoughts?
