LOL. Well, the truth is that I don't think that the problem is 
big enough to be worth going to the effort of writing a comment 
system. I don't even like the idea of having a comment system on 
the official documentation. I just think that if we're going to 
do it, then we need to not use one that's going to be tracking 
everyone like Disqus does and that we probably should write our 
own. But I'd prefer that we don't have one at all.
