comment authenticaion
is it working for anyone in Roller 2.1?
the code seems to have been removed, but the default roller.properties
has the authenticator set to
comment.authenticator.classname=org.roller.presentation.velocity.MathCommentAuthenticator
which is the 'what is 21 + 13' question to stop blogbots, but the method
getCommentAuthenticatorHtml() in the PageHelper class returns nothing,
having its code commented out, so authentication always fails!
for now, comments can be entered by changing this to
comment.authenticator.classname=org.roller.presentation.velocity.DefaultAuthenticator
which doesn't perform any authentication, and always returns true. so
we're at the mercy of the bots!
¿que pasa?

apologies for the confusion, and thanks for the clarification.
I've modified some of the source code and templates, and had to preseve
these changes in the upgrade, and was mistakenly using the old version
of comments.vm

It is now called from theme/scripts/clientSideInclude.js as
clientSideInclude('commentAuthenticator','/roller/CommentAuthenticatorServlet');
See http://opensource2.atlassian.com/projects/roller/browse/ROL-935
I had some problems with that code crashing Firefox and submitted
a "patch" yesterday but it has not been approved yet

Is it? I'm using the MathCommentAuthenticator on my site - and it
works, but it's not Ajaxified as far as I can tell.

I think the MathCommentAuthenicator is all AJAX in the latest code,
but I haven't looked.
