 * Thanks, HandySolo.
 * Yeah, I think RSS or MySQL is where I would start for sure. But I’m not sure 
   of the best way to script the creation of the individual pages (one HTML or RTF
   page per post).
 * I’m imagining something like a shell script where I can point to the RSS/dump
   plus a styling document/template, then have it spit out all the magic pages into
   one directory.

 * Good eye, moshu.
 * I’m actually having great luck on SK2 for spam (I *loved* bad behavior but it
   was _creaming_ MySQL when a story got Dugg/BoingBoinged).
 * To tell the truth, I’d like a way to ensure that users are providing a working
   and reachable email address. I think the comment authenticator ([http://skippy.net/download/plugins/commentauth/](http://skippy.net/download/plugins/commentauth/))
   is incompatible with the latest WP, but something like that would be fine too.
 * I do like the idea of letting people join up in general, though — just that I’m
   already pushing the good graces of my dedicated server and its generous host,
   so I have to be choosy about increasing CPU load.
 * Thanks for the response!
