With 2.7 possibly only a few days away I wanted to get a mood on what you intend to do once it is out, and once you have upgraded. I know some of you will upgrade immediately, some like me will have been running 2.7 since beta 3, and others will wait for evidence that there isn’t anything major in there that will break everything. This isn’t what interests me today. What interests me is your plans for comments.

Everyone was talking up threaded comments when their inclusion into the core was first announced, but since then the realities have started to dawn. Some of you have told me you don’t like threaded comments, some have tried them out and found them to be really difficult to get working how you want. This is especially true if you don’t like the default HTML that it spits out. Some, like me, think that IntenseDebate is too big an offer and that it will far easier to use that instead than worry about themes and things.

So the Monday poll for this week is: What are you planning to do about threaded comments when you upgrade to 2.7?
