I am still running an old version of .Text and it has some issues. Somehow I broke something so trackbacks aren’t really working right, and editing posts through the metablogapi doesn't work anymore either. I have been contemplating updating to community server, but I have also been looking around at some of the engines out there. The main thing I am looking for is extensibility and additional features around advertising (mostly for betterinasong.com).

WordPress seems to be where it’s at. There are tons of extensions out there and a very active development community. Anyone out there have experience working with it? How was the setup? Did you transfer posts and comments over? Did you get links working correctly?

I sure wish it was .NET, but at this point I am looking for the best tool regardless of platform.
