 * It seems there is a problem editing comments if they have a single quote character,
   as in – I’m – or – you’re. Is that a known problem?
    What’s the difference between
   adding and editing that editing could be a problem? – Harry

 * I actually got rid of it when I went up to 1.3.
    No idea what caused it though.

 * A known problem, good to know.
    No luck with upgrade.php, unfortunately. I’m 
   running a blog where a jury is adding long comments to posts, so the ability 
   to edit comments is a big feature for me. I could give 1.3 a try for the next
   round.
