Sorry, no comments last 14 hrs - HaloScan down

I have received inquiries why comments could not be posted on this blog.

HaloScan has been down for the past 14 hours, as evident from the world-wide clamour for answer from haloScan about the breakdown:

Congrats to "hangtuah" in the JJ, where is your answer on “Open Source”? thread for being the first to get through since the breakdown. I posted a response to test whether haloScan comment is really working.

With the haloScan back in operation, lets have all the bona fide comments.

HaloScan has now introduced a moderating option for comments and I am seriously considering the proposal for the registration for first-time commentators as suggested by many to prevent abuses although I would prefer the status quo.

More views and other suggestions are welcome. And many thanks for your support since the public start of this blog on National Day 2005.
