Problem Statements

1. Provide a complete blogging experience out of the box - Athena should make it easy for new users to create and manage great looking, fully-featured blogs -- whether that new user is an individual on a shared hosting plan or an enterprise looking to roll out blogs to 5,000 employees.
2. Dramatically improve the application's user experience - Athena should be easy and intuitive to use -- whether you're creating a new post, moderating community feedback, setting up a new blog, editing your design, installing a new plugin, etc. And this ease of use should extend from the single blog installation to the 5,000 blog installation.
3. Make it easier to manage complete sites with Movable Type - More and more sites are turning to Movable Type to power not only multiple blogs, but entire websites. Athena should make it easy for users to manage multiple blogs at one time, as well as manage non- blog content.
4. Enable richer communities to form around blogs - The next generation of blogs must enable publishers to more fully engage their readers and commenters, in order to foster more powerful communities that create compelling content. Movable Type today powers some of the most compelling content-based communities on the web; Athena should make it easier to build and manage those types of communities.
5. Improve MT's underlying architecture - Athena should improve MT's underlying architecture to improve MT's application performance, provide support for new features and where appropriate leverage technology that enables Vox, LiveJournal and TypePad to scale.
