So code can flow from MT to WP all day long, but they won’t take any WP code." And just how much Perl _were_ you considering adding to Wordpress? Unless you're talking about the PHP-based dynamic option that no-one uses, but I don't think that that's any great shakes. “Interesting consequence of their dual-licensing: they won’t be able to take any code from WordPress without killing their ability to have a copyrighted version.

I really like the way MT publishes essentially static HTML files -- on a shared host that can really speed up the page loads -- but the theme system is the most obfuscated and confusing thing I have ever seen.

I totally agree with you on the WordPress admin interface. Authors spend a lot of time with it, and it is simply not an interface at the enterprise level. Aaron, a great article.

I migrated a reasonably large site from WP to MT last week after the MT team patched some of the import stuff. I did a short writeup on the process here: http://www.movabletype4.eu/wordpress/migrating-a-largish-site-from-wordpress-to-movabletype-4.html As for the themes and other stuff, I get the impression that a lot of people are badgering away in the background. Don't forget there was a significant change between MT3 and MT4, so a lot of the old themes are currently "broken" in MT4. Hopefully people will find the time to fix them Michele A lot of the issues related to importing from WP to MT have already been rectified.
