SixApart Press Release

Grabbed from bexone.
Six Apart appoints Christopher J. Alden Chairman and CEO
Chris Alden joined Six Apart over a year ago, most recently serving as Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Professional Division of Six Apart, overseeing the TypePad and Movable Type businesses.
Translation: Chris Alden is barely aware LiveJournal exists.
Alden joined Six Apart as co-founder and CEO of Rojo Networks, Inc., a feed aggregation service which was acquired by Six Apart in 2006.
Translation: Alden has a vested interest in "cleaning up" LJ.
Six Apart board member David Hornik of August Capital stated, “Barak leaves Six Apart in incredible shape, and now is the perfect time to pass the baton to Chris."
Translation: Barak leaves Six Apart before LJ's userbase can pin him down about "we're working on creating a single policy document .... We think it will be a few weeks, and we'll update on progress as that happens." 6A is hoping the transition is a good excuse for another three weeks of ignoring its users, by which time, the winter holiday madness will have kicked in, and everyone will be too busy to pester LJ/6A for content standards.
