But... couldn't they change all the references to "LiveJournal" on their site to "JournalFen"? Update their code to take into account the latest changes? At the very least, update the "Create Journal" page to explain how to create a journal (or why you can't)?
I don't know them personally--maybe they are wonderful people. But they are either negligent or overwhelmed; neither possibility bodes well for their potential as a long-term solution.
Please don't get me wrong; I think that, in concept, they are much, much better than the other alternatives. I am criticizing them because I *want* to have confidence in them. But as they are currently, I just wonder how dedicated and sustainable they are. (And SixApart isn't the only alternative; InsaneJournal is up now and various fan-created others are in development.)
(And, of course, I am very grateful to you for setting up JF accounts for people who want to move. I think it is awesome that you are being proactive about this and helping people.)
