I already did that and more before asking the question.
1. The link to Jack Slocum blog in that page is broken. His new blog/
site no longer has that type of commenting system.
2. Extjs does not provide old versions of their code for download.
Their new version is licensed in a very messy fashion making it
impossible to use in almost any project without buying their
commercial license.
Some info on that can be found at http://pablotron.org/?cid=1556. They
also claimed that extjs licensed under LGPL was not actually LGPL and
should not be distributed. I think the version used on djangobook.com
was based on the BSD/public domain licensed initial extjs which is
free of all this mess.
3. I was interested in the django source code as well to see how the
extjs comments was integrated.

If you go and read about the comments system on the site, it tells you
(see: http://djangobook.com/about/comments/) exactly where it came
from:

"Many, many thanks to Jack Slocum; the inspiration and much of the
code for the comment system comes from Jack's blog, and this site
couldn't have been built without his wonderful YAHOO.ext library.
Thanks also to Yahoo for YUI itself."

There are even links in that paragraph to help you go find the stuff.

Has the source code for djangobook.com ever released ? Is there a plan
to release it if it is not released ? And lastly does anyone know of
any projects which can provide the comments functionality of
djangobook.com ?
