Use the forum for comments on the blog?
Just want to say I appreciate the recent posts on notable Zotero contributors. I think you would have had a lot of positive feedback on that series if comments were open.
Like many users, I don't really like the fact that comments are closed on the blog. Doesn't look friendly, doesn't invite community participation. Now, I know this is because too many users would simply dump their support issues in the blog posts. So how about this: use the forum for comments on blog posts. Simply make a separate category "Blog" here and (auto)create a topic for each blog post, linked from the comments section on the blog. This gives you all the forum tools for managing misplaced support requests while also allowing the community to comment more directly on blog posts. The blog frequency is low enough for this to be a low-maintenance solution. I think it would be appreciated.

I don't know if Debbie reads the forum closely, I'll send her a pointer.
@adamsmith: nope, no reply.
