is it intentional that comments are disabled on that page???
Yes. Absolutely, completely and utterly intentional. We do not need to re-hash this discussion in the handbooks. Let's get our ya-ya's out here and then document it there for posterity.
sigh... Drupal seems like such a closed shop..
denying comment just adds to the impression
Even if the discussion wasn't useful - why prevent it?!
??? I'm not denying discussion. Discussion can happen here on the mailing list (as it has, very healthily so), in the issue tracking/revision control groups on groups.drupal.org (which is a great place for interested people to collaborate on fixing this), or in the Documentation issue queue (if you feel there are errors/omissions -- or just join the docs team and you can fix them yourself: http://drupal.org/contribute/documentation/join). The referenced node is a piece of *documentation*. Discussion does not belong within a piece of documentation, especially not THIS piece of documentation whose sole purpose is to aggregate all the various discussions that have happened over the years.
and without a response to Adrian's question I doubt anyone will put in the effort ... and this discussion will come up again.
Yes, that's probably true. I don't think this thread is done yet. :) -Angie
