Big changes to ext3 and journaling
That's good information, but it doesn't respond to the suggestion.
Most readers who want to report typos will continue to use the comment facility because they will not have seen this comment.
Maybe a line could be added to the comment instructions: "If you're just reporting a typo, please email instead of commenting."
I'd like to add that sometimes I find something in an article incomprehensible for reasons other than a typo. Missing background information, undefined terms, etc. If LWN editors are willing to fix things like that after publication, email for that should also be encouraged. And it would be nice if the emailer got a personal reply describing the fix, since he's not going to read the article again.
