As of April 30, 2009, a new comment policy is being put in place, as follows:

  • Comments must be published with a name (can be a pseudonym or alias) and a valid email address.
  • Commenters are not permitted to use the alias “Anonymous”. Please choose a name and stick with it.
  • While certain leeway will be granted for the sake of discussion, comments unrelated to the discussion or blog entry may be edited or deleted. Editing and deletion of comments is at the sole discretion of the moderator.
  • Moderation is not up for debate in the blog comments. Such postings will be deleted without further explanation or debate. Anyone having a question about the deletion or editing of a comment entry should contact the moderator via email.
  • Inappropriate comments will be removed and posting privileges may be revoked in extreme cases.
  • Comments are automatically closed on entries older than 20 days.
