George,<br><br>We didn't conduct an evaluation in deep, but I'm afraid nodecomment.module doesn't replace comment.module to the full extent (at least, we couldn't get comment notifications at that time). But to be honest, I have not looked at the code, perhaps it does (!). I guess we need a more accurate information from the module's maintainers here...

<br>
I am talking about the fact that only nodes can have categories and tags but not comments. That means that a forum topic opener and blog can have them individual blog entries and topic replies not, makes those key modules largely useless from the perspective of growing the a group's capacity for collaborative meaning making.
<br>
<br>
I talked with many programmers and they all said that adding rags to comment cannot be done in Drupal because of its architecture. Is it really so? No amount of money could buy developer time to fix that? If any of you have a serious proposal, we would consider it.
<br>
<br>
When we used Drupal 4.6. And 4.7, we got that problem partially resolved by using flexinode to mimick a blog, and then we could add tags to the entries. However, we moved to 5.1 and, to my knowledge, flexinode doesn't work there. Can that be changed?
<br>
<br>
Another workaround would be to use Moveable Type or another dedicated blog software and link the MT blogs fom our Drupal-based home page. However, in that case we would loose the handiness of one search command working on all content types at once. Any work around that?
<br>
<br>
