I'd prefer option 4, since the trolls are not noxious enough for me to be worth filtering out
but the option to do so in the future might be nice. However, I would encourage you to do
whatever is the least hassle for you to implement and least future headaches. The user
comments are not central to what makes this place worthwhile (unlike other sites such as
slashdot), instead it is the excellent content.

LWN produces some of the best Linux-related content on the web, in many respects. I could even live without the comments. But, some discussions are really quite nice, and I feel most posters do add something to the already excellent articles.

I think I'd go with option 2. Of course, Jon, if you need help I would be happy to do what I can. (Coding, my financial situaion does not allow me to purchase a shiny new server. ;-)
