I have the same qualms....and am currently moving my blog to WordPress. I'm pulling everything back to purgatory and am even working on archiving all my old entries and comments.

I moved to LJ because it offered things my home-grown scripts didn't offer, and the boxed packages like WP and MT were sadly lacking, but 6 years later and I can finally do what I want to do with ease. I'd been putting the move off/debating it for the last two years, but the scary Russian company has pushed me forward.

Is this the same WordPress that just had a huge systematic password vulnerability revealed? Somehow I wouldn't trust them either. At least the code behind LiveJournal seems solid, even if the company is questionable. Of course, having done my time in PHP-land I'm now skeptical of *anything* written in PHP, though some are OK.

Oh yeah, I'll be impressed if you get comments ported over well. That seems to be a big sticking point even in migrating from one LJ system to another.

I managed to get everything moved over fairly easily....the new blog will go live after I fix the style sheet stuff--I need to make a new theme to work with WP and my site's existing cron'd css stuff.
