Comment 22

So... after some undisclosed amount of time screwing around with various comment plugins, I'm dissatisfied. I don't feel an affinity with the Blosxom plugin architecture.

None of the available plugins seem to do what I want. Some of them are close, but not close enough, and they aren't like quite Perl modules. If they were CPAN distros, I would know exactly how to extend, test, and debug them. Since they're ad hoc files, it's less clear, and the code quality seems to be lower on average than you'd see on CPAN. They might be easier for the less skilled hacker to prepare, but they're more troublesome for me to work on.

I glanced at Bryar, and it looks more like what I'm used to -- but not many people seem to have hacked on it. Movable Type, maybe?

I'd ask y'all out there for advice... but first I'll need to turn on comments.
