Description

The current version of movabletype-importer does not map Movable Type / TypePad slugs to WordPress slugs (basename and post_name in respective vocabularies).

The attached patch recognizes the BASELINE line and saves as the post object's post_name. I have also changed dynamic strings to static for speed and changed "MovableType" to "Movable Type" to match the brand.

If committed this patch will better help transition post URLs between Movable Type and TypePad blogs and their new WordPress blog.
