Aug 9, 2002 | Q
I’m leaving town again, for a long weekend with Shannon in, of all places, Alabama. Last week at camp spoiled me — I need my fix of swimming, reading, and lounging, and one of Shannon’s cousins has just the right place to visit.
When I get back, item one on the agenda will be finally making the move to Moveable Type. I finished the script to export from Manila, I conjured up a CSS-only layout that replicates the layout here, I figured out all the mod_rewrite rules to make references to pages in Manila find their way to the right MT pages, I wrote a new picture show script, and I got the new search engine running — there’s not much left to do but import the entries and flip the switch!
See you all soon…
Jason, is there any way to migrate to MT from a weblogs.com blog? I’m dying to do so but can’t figure out if I need access to the server files or not (which I don’t have, obviously.)

You can move to MT from a weblogs.com blog — I answered this question here.
