I used it from 2002-2004, then took a hiatus from blogging due to life (:) ), and now I am back. I tried WordPress, and wasn't impressed. Meh. I am not too into the built-in MT themes, but I'll be making my own anyway. I much prefer Movable Type.

I'm seeing your comments left all over the place in the midst of the MT4 buzz -- irregardless of who agrees with you and who does not, your passion is obvious and if the development community build around MT4 has half of it - you've got great footing. I think I recall an interview you did recently - I *think* it was published at the Blog Herald.. where you likened the WP vs. MT to that of a religious war . . and good comparison, really. It is reminiscent of Mac v. PC v. Linux v. Whoever...it gives everyone something to talk about, something to compare and everyone has a different baseline. Variety is a good thing. Getting the conversations out there is also very healthy in order to help users make an informed choice. After all, if there were only one flavor of ice cream - - I'd be highly bummed. Congrats on the latest announcement and I'm very interested to see where MT/SA goes from here. :-b Anil - I truly respect your passion for what you do.

Given your perspective, it's understandable you've collected conversations that talk about MT in the context of other platforms. I think it might also be useful to note that we haven't ever really focused on the "us vs. them" or zero-sum-game mindset in blogging -- we're squarely focused on getting new people blogging, and in helping bloggers succeed with the sites they have. As a result, we'll probably never acquit ourselves fairly in comparisons; That's okay, some companies are competitor-driven and some are customer-driven. Anyway, the more succinct way to say what I'm trying to get at is that, at least until we get 6 billion more people blogging, "winning" in the world of blog software doesn't mean anybody else has to "lose". The folks on our team who've been running the largest and oldest open source blogging community in the world have been great mentors in this regard. We get to see not just LiveJournal thriving, but individual LiveJournal clones reaching millions of users as well, and that's a pretty gratifying endorsement of the idea that having an open community means we're not the only company that can benefit from our efforts. :) Can't wait to hear what you think about the stuff we're working on next.

Although - I hate to say never in any circumstance.. but I just get the feeling that the good folks involved in the WP project don't really relate to words like 'stagnate' and 'wallow' :) Excellent point, Paul….it wouldn’t be a good thing for WP to stagnate and wallow in it’s own popularity, now would it?
