DISQUS

A lot of the potential RSS goodness is tied up with the Web 2.0-style stuff in the 11g library. E.g. there are URLs for RSS feeds for new books, but have to find the right place(s) in the UI to link to them; for example, perhaps in the left navigation bar for each book. But the RSS feed for search results doesn't have such dependencies, so it shouldn't be a problem to backport.

Let's aim for that as an OpenWorld welcoming gift. :-) I'll be at OpenWorld but hanging out at a more diverse set of booths this year.

This blog post is giving me a flashback of trying to formulate the explanation for PRAGMA SERIALLY_REUSABLE in the PL/SQL Guide. I'm still wondering if it's ever needed in real-life situations.

Just to clarify for people like Frederik, all the comments are evaluated by the doc group, and routed to the relevant author (easy to do because it's obvious what book someone was reading when they made the comment). Not everyone will receive a personal response, because some people submit anonymously, some people use OTN login IDs that aren't real e-mail addresses and we only record the IDs. Some books, the installation ones in particular, are being refreshed so fast that the fixed version goes up shortly after the comment comes in. I'd expect people to receive responses more if their comment _wasn't_ acted upon for some reason, than if the writer just verified and incorporated the information.
