My primary blog editor has been Microsoft Live Writer for years, but it has always been a pain to install via Windows Essentials (as I don’t want the rest of the product), also I was never able to find the right version when I rebuilt a PC. This was not helped by the fact there has been no development of the product for years, so I struggled to remember what year version I really needed (last one was 2012 by the way).

So it is great news that the code base has gone Open Source at  http://openlivewriter.org/, and this is my first post using the new editor. Seem to work great.
