Two Forward, One Back
Well, comments and authentication are working, however I moved to the off-the-shelf comments module, which has it's own scheme for comment formatting, most notably substituting <br /> for newlines in the comment body.
I should merge my changes to parse HTML and include it in the comment database as CDATA. Maybe I can do that today.
Also, it's time to bring back the sidebar, with the tagcloud, linkroll, feeds, a flickr, etc.
I'm with several feeds to display, I'm going to revisit a generalized approach, with decoupled retrieval/caching and parsing/display.
Finally, I'd like to put a related tags
list on each tag
page, a feature not currently supported by the tag plugin.
