All of them calling out for a full post, with plenty of thought, or testing, or both. Not a one that’s willing to let me get away with a quick link.

On my plate, in my inbox:

• My BlogThis Mozilla extension is stupidly broken, only passing through 255 characters of selected text.
• My PHP blo.gs blogroll script is probably stupidly broken with character encoding problems, and at any rate desperately needs to be rewritten.
• Revision Plugin wants to be blogged, needs to be hacked and patched if I’m right in thinking that it’s saving revisions while an entry is a draft.
• PreviousNextInCategory Plugin needs to be destupified, so that it defaults to only using the primary category, with an attribute to ask for the current weird any-category effect.
• OpenPGPComment 1.5 – I need to try updating, see if it will work without my current brutal hacks, and either way send what I’m doing off to Michael, who’s wondering whether I’m obnoxious about not answering email, or just really slow and stupid about it (answer: both).
• Beg Shannon to come back and play with us. Drive back there and beg in person, if that’s what it takes. I’m starting to get desperate.

I don’t suppose that spending ten minutes making a list of links actually got me any closer to getting any of those done?
