Disclosure: I'm a subscriber

I have no real issue with LWN comments being subscriber only. After all LWN != Slashdot and I'd rather enjoy a high signal low noise environment. Someone has pointed out that some luminaries comment but I don't know if they subscribe or not, personally I can't see why they wouldn't.

The only non-subscriber posts I forsee I may miss is authors posts who occasionally respond when their software gets reviewed in LWN. Perhaps the solution is a post/email confirm approach for non-subscribed posters?
