I would very very very strongly recommend -not- starting a new site on Drupal 5 at this point, considering that Drupal 5 is EOL when Drupal 7 is released, which should be relatively soon (3 - 6 months perhaps?)<br>

<font face="verdana,sans-serif">I'm polishing of a site migration from MoveableType to Drupal 5. (Why Drupal 5, you ask? Because the <a href="http://drupal.org/project/import_typepad" target="_blank">Import Typepad / MoveableType</a> module for Drupal 6 doesn't work yet.) The site consists of a little under 4,000 blog posts and over 40,000 comments. I've got everything in place except for capturing "permalinks" and preserving them as path redirects to the new nodes. If anyone has some experience/expertise with this sort of thing, please email me. Thanks!<br>
