once I decided to make my entries in restructured text (huge mistake), I can't easily change to using regular html for new ones, which is what I want. Half my entries include an apology for not being able to present some fancy escaping correctly or for screwing up my links. I just want to use xinha! This is likely the issue that will finally cause me to switch blog systems.
spam comments have corrupted stories in the past. A look at the gross NIH article file format will show you that comments-corrupting-stories would not be surprising
anti-spam comment system is too hard to get right. I'm currently on the side of "reject all good comments" and I don't know how to get to a better state
it has tags, but I can't provide an RSS feed for a single tag, which I'd really like
it's in python, which is why I chose it, but the barrier to writing patches or plugins (e.g. per-tag rss feeds, or per-article input syntaxes) is too high
each blog gets a large number of scattered data files, including some dotfiles (why?!), which can make it hard to reorganize blogs or get the perms right when you move everything to a new NFS drive
pretty friendly install and web config
can't avoid running it as cgi, which sucks

Thanks for asking!
