I'm with you Roger.
There should be a comments system built into WWP.
No ratings, just comments.
And it should be self-contained within the WWP site, not linking to anything external.
We are asking people to come and view our work, why shouldn't they be able to comment on it, and why shouldn't we get some sort of feedback from the viewers?
Why would you want to link to an external site, and not have it self-contained along with the panos the comments relate to.
I don't see how having comments on the panos would change the way we produce them.
The sky is falling, the sky is falling!

I think it's unfortunate we're somehow linking a forum/comments system to
a ratings system - I think they are quite different.
...
I think it's a bit of a shame to see all the adamant rejections of what I
thought is a pretty desirable, low-risk, and totally natural new feature
for WWP. And since I readily acknowledge this is not a democracy, my
comments are not intended to gain concensus as much as to explain why I
wanted this functionality, and why I don't think it's as big a deal as
some may think.
I'd love to see it; I don't think any of the external options are at all
solutions, so if it doesn't happen here it's not really interesting to me.
But if it doesn't I'll survive <sniff, sniff>.
Best,R
