Looks nice!
I second the opinion that Disqus might have a better
alternative. Its
loading after the page was rendered looks clumsy, its style
does not
match that of dlang.org's... the whole thing is somehow out
of place.
Unless something better comes about, we'll go with disqus.
Sönke, are there styling options available?
I want to stick my neck out and say that I love disqus *ducks*.
But I don't know that it's what we should use in this instance.
Disqus is great when you are having a live debate. New posts
get loaded in real-time, votes are recorded in real-time, so
it's very fluid.
But in this case, I don't see any fierce debates occurring on
doc pages. Probably simple notes or "useful tricks" is what
will appear there. A "live update" feature is pretty much
overkill for such static discussion.
That being said, I've been on plenty of disqus sites, and they
look different, act different, but have the same general look
and feel.
An idea -- would it be possible to search links from the D
forum, and post underneath the discussions that link to that
doc page? Then have some sort of moderation so non-doc-related
discussions don't clutter the page? Maybe even just first few
sentences of the post, with a link to the D forum...
Then we don't have to have any kind of new interface for D
posts, just a copy of what's already in discussion.
Sure, we could do that.
Together with an "Ask a question about std.modulename.symbolname"
link that goes to a partially pre-filled form ready to post to
d.learn.
