To upgrade or not to upgrade

Apparently the 3.2 version of MovableType is out. I'm wondering whether to take the time to upgrade.

It's surprising how easily I accept updates when they're done for me, compared to how uncomfortable I feel when contemplating them.

Reflecting on this, I notice that as long as the configuration state I manage and my data aren't involved, I don't care. Upgrade away.

Whenever my data and the configuration state I have to manage is involved, there's a slighly perceptible allergic reaction, and a pretty strong desire not to go first.

The bar remains high for new features and bug fixes.
