Sorry about being a conspiracy theorist!  ;-)  The comments on the
blog are obviously closed automatically after a few weeks. (The usual
hint on this - important for UX! ,-) - is gone, maybe for aesthetic
reasons -- the conspiracy is haunting us again, yay!)

Sad thing, I would have really liked to add something meaningful to
the discussion.

Cheers, Peter
