Thanks to Movable Type 4, it would appear that we no longer need my old Entry plugin anymore. By passing an id argument to the MTEntries tag.
<MTEntries id="12345" lastn="1">
....
</MTEntries>
Or, for those of you digging the new template sytax:
<mt:entries id="12345" lastn="1">
....
</mt:entries>
The lastn argument is needed thanks to a bit of a quirk in the MT code. Using the id argument is an undocumented feature, as far as I can tell.

Yes perhaps, it has been obseleted by MT4 but the plugin should still be available for those that want it:
1. because it is required by existing templates and plugins to function without modification
2. it is unreasonable to expect everyone to upgrade all of their websites to MT4 to get this functionality
Any thoughts on how I might still use these photogallery templates then, without the Entry plugin?

If you won't make it available, can you make the old syntax for the plugin available so I can try to replace it in these templates?
I would have sent this request by email, but I cannot find a contact form on your website.
Well... I did find the syntax in the MT plugins directory... hopefully I should be able to modify these templates myself to obviate the need for the Entry plugin.
