I’m doing this for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is migration to a new version of Expression Engine, the content management software on which Hasten down the wire runs.

But mostly this is happening because the spam problem has become untenable. There’s no real Askimet for this version of Expression Engine, and the Ellis Lab folks don’t seem to be too interested in the problem. It’s become a real problem and I just don’t have the cycles to deal with it.

While I’ve become quite frustrated with the direction Ellis Lab is taking, I readily acknowledge it’s their decision to make and I know where the door is. I’ve got my hand on the doorknob, but I just don’t have to cycles to make the jump to Drupal just yet.

With regard to comments, as John Gruber eloquently stated, “you write on your site; I write on mine.” Trackbacks are still turned on; use them.
