Admin: software upgrade
The software upgrade is mostly complete. There are still a few things that need tweaking *glares sternly at link category titles* but we think everything is working. Let us know if you run into any problems.
Comment preview will be back eventually. Live comment preview installed–as you type the comment, the preview will appear underneath the typing box. We agree that it is a bit creepy. 
(It’s not out of the box, and I have to figure out the plugin, and there are some more pressing matters that need attending to beforehand.) 
Also I installed a comment-spam killer app, so please don’t be offended if your comment is kicked to moderation. I’m using it on two other blogs and so far genuine comments get through with no problem, so hopefully that will continue.
ETA: I tested the comment posting as a “guest” (i.e. not logged in as a staff member) and it asked for a “captcha” where I had to enter a generated code. This is part of the spam killer software. Once you post with a “captcha” once, I think you become a trusted user and shouldn’t be asked again, unless you use a different name/e-mail address/URL etc. I am thinking about having registration for commenters, which would allow one to bypass all that stuff. What does everyone think of that idea?
