Movable 4 moving back to 3

Movable Type 4 has a number of new features, and great improvements. There's nothing wrong with it, just that I found the rebuilding in MT4 is lower than Movable Type 3. Before those WordPress-supporters jump in to bash Movable Type, I must say the slow rebuilding is partially due to the fact of templates used, and I mistakenly added a number of duplicated ones.

The templates in Movable Type 4 are really great. They are in module-like styles. It is very easy to use and maintain I have to say. However, I spent a great deal customising templates in AntBlog701, MozInfo701, MacCentre701 and SillyDog701. Somehow I don't feel like to re-configure the templates in Movable Type 4.

Perhaps, sometime in the future I will upgrade to Movable Type 4. I am still very happy with Movable Type 3. It works well for me. And again, I am not switching to WordPress any time soon.
