Does anyone have any experience (or can recommend someone) who has migrated
to wordpress from movable type?
I think movable type is really not listening to its customers.
Simple things like comment management lead to a lot of work for example:
wordpress has features like entering a keyword v.s. movable type which forces you
to use a typekey service – not in my interest or the interest of my
readers!
A new version of Movable type is out but don’t see anything great in it – so now I am
seriously considering migrating to wordpress!
Please email me at ajit.jaokar at futuretext.com

WordPress offers an import feature that allows you to move posts and comments from Movable Type to WordPress.
Set up a demo wordpress installation, go to Import and select Movable Type.
