Another Movable Type upgrade, for the final time?

I’ve just done what I suspect will be the last major upgrade to the Movable Type system I use to run this blog. While MT itself seems to march along merrily, it’s clearly targeting large commercial users (I paid for the software upgrade that I’ve just installed), and I’m ready to jump ship to something else.

That said, having taken a long look at migrating to WordPress, I’ve decided to hold fire for a little while, to see how Ghost comes along – its 1.0 release is a way away yet. If I end up going to that system, then I’d rather only do one migration, and its focus on Markdown looks handy, given that I mostly blog using that at the moment.

Movable Type 6 (which is what I’ve just installed) is the fifth version of MT I’ve used, since I switched from Blogger a very long time ago…
