Has the Python insider blog really accumulated enough history and
cruft to make this move problematic? It's a fairly new blog, with not
much content in it. From my blogging experience, Blogger has other
limitations which eventually bite you, and since it's not very
flexible you can either live with it or move to a more flexible
platform.

All of this completely IMHO, of course. Just friendly advice ;-)
