Sorry for the inserted inline without the original post, but I wanted to address Jeffrey's questions on the list.<br>

(1) Who/what is Disqus.com?<br>
A third-party site used for comments on the blog and docs site. </div>

As a service we have tried to tweak the settings as much as possible to meet our needs but we are taking steps towards replacing it. We have:<br>

1. Added the doc bug link to each page so that you don't have to use comments to report a doc bug.</div>

3. Changed the settings so no OpenStack docs properties are monetized. Yes, I know that somehow Disqus makes money, but we're not purposely using our comments to monetize for OpenStack.<br>
