It's vague whether that applies to their basic JS widget (which 
is used on vibed.org now), or their WordPress plugin. I believe 
that in order for Google to see their comments, the comments need 
to be visible with JS turned off (cached locally and sent by the 
website's web server), which their WordPress plugin does - but 
which can't be achieved with our current dlang.org setup, which 
serves static HTML pages.
