I’m already using my own CMS, Publ. Previously I was using Movable Type, which is a static publishing system and is what everyone switched to WordPress from when the entire blogosphere suddenly got paranoid about Movable Type.

My hope for the web is that if WP were to go away we’d see a return to static publishing being the norm. There are so many really good static CMSes out there that it’s not even worth trying to list them at this point.

OH! I remember Movable Type! I agree regarding static CMSes. I've been doing a lot of performance optimization and WordPress is not easy to optimize once a site has been going for a bit!
