Chalk up another WordPress user. The vast array of plugins was the tipping point for me...

I also use Drupal for a couple of sites which I maintain -- not so much blogs as full-blown CMSs (one is a community site for a student club, so it has events, newsletters, member rosters, etc.; the other is a multi-user blog, but it also has forums, etc.). For me, Drupal is a "love it AND hate it" relationship. For what it does, it's great. I love that it's open source, and that I can hack away at the code if need be. I love that it's got a great user community with tonnes of modules and add-ons. But it (IMO) just lacks the polish that I've been spoiled with on Wordpress. And while the modules are great, they seem to be hit or miss sometime (and yes, I could develop my own, but it's a matter of priorities). I've been on the lookout for another alternative, but finding something that will migrate everything over from Drupal -- including all my users, posts, and unique data types (like events, etc) -- is proving most difficult. If there are suggestions, I'd be thrilled to hear them!
