I'm now running with 1.2.2 and everything seems to be working, a few 
comments:

** any reason the file naming convention went from 'contrib-1.2.1' to 
'contrib.1.2.2' that shift from '-' to '.' caused me to make a stupid 
mistake.

I never understood David's intention nor the inconsistency but figured if it 
caused a problem for someone else I could accommodate the shift. However, 
my code now reads:

<a href="$base_url/$file_path" title="Permalink">this entry</a> posted to
<a href="$base_url/$path" title="Category">$absolute_path</a>; <br/>
<a href="$base_url/$file_path?showcomments=yes" title="Comments 
($num_comments)">comments ($num_comments)</a>

So the user is going to have to be clueful that they can't leave a comment 
on the "the entry" but have to click "comments" instead? (Is that a common 
blog convention?) Making the "this entry" show the comments too, as I 
originally did, means I have the query option in the permalink which I 
don't want.

What does this mean? My config.py has:
py['comment_rejected_words'] = ['casino', 'poker', 'loans', 'mortgage', 
'drugs', 'loss', 'blackjack']
This isn't supported anymore?

Also, thought I would test the rendering in IE 6.0 and noticed a very 
strange behaviour. If I load:

in IE, it renders the page. However, if I ask it to reload or go back to it 
later, I get a blank document?!
