By popular demand, commenting is now enabled. Authentication happens via OpenID only; all comments will be moderated to combat spam. Moderation in ikiwiki seems to happen mainly via the web interface (I know about the RSS) so there may be a certain delay until I approve new comments.

If anyone happens to know how to make ikiwiki handle moderation gracefully within a git-based workflow, do leave a comment. That's possible, now :)

RSS Atom
adding comments is bit slow
When I clicked "Add a comment" it took at least seven seconds for the page to load.

Hashcash
If you want to completely eliminate spam, you should enforce JavaScript on the commenting system. Have the person posting the comment do a "proof of work" puzzle. Something similar to hashcash, and spam will be a thing of the past.

comment 3

lindi: Yes, commenting is taking ages indeed. I will be migrating to a faster machine soon. That should fix things.

aatoponce: I considered this, but I think I will go with manual moderation, for now.

email notifications of replies?
Could your blog offer an option to send email notifications if somebody replies to a comment? I only noticed your reply to my comment since I was curious enough to revisit the blog entry today to see if there have been any replies. This does not really scale well, I can't remember all the blogs that I've commented on.
