The tool that Billl Zeller and I created for posting to Movable Type from your desktop is being wound down. Zempt will live on at the SourceForge project page, but there will be no future development on the project. The domain has expired and will not be renewed.

Say it ain't so! I'm sooo sad to hear this because Zempt is such a great little application. I use it all the time and recommend it to clients on every project that I do. Thank you for leaving the files on Sourceforge though. At least us die hards can still get our hands on it. And thank you for creating and supporting such a wonderful open-source project. I'm really sorry to see it go away.
