The ridiculous (ent?) delays and failures of the comment system will soon be dealt with... Clearly they don't behave well as a remotely hosted service... Thusly, that whole technique will be entirely scrapped and they will be integrated into the code in a more standard fashion...

As you may or may not know, the comment code (SliceComments) was designed by Webslice Labs, for which Ridiculent is a sort of testing ground. Seeing as the remotely hosted comment system seems to have proven unfeasible, a change of strategy for Webslice Labs is in order... "SliceComments" will still be made available for others at some point, but only as downloadable code for use with ColdFusion.
