Amazon is honking me off
If any of you get errors leaving comments on the site: it's because Amazon's web server is sending the following as 'valid XML':
The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete
your request.
Please contact the server administrator,
webtech-admin@amazon.com and inform them of the time the error occurred,
and anything you might have done that may have
caused the error.
Because the MT-Amazon plugin doesn't seem to handle this properly as an error, the page doesn't rebuild. Consequently, even though your comment is stored (and will show up the next time I rebuild the site or make an entry, assuming Amazon has its act together) it doesn't show up immediately.
I'll probably revise the way my system works (i.e. hard-code the damn thing) this weekend. Until then, bear with me.
Update: After 16 hours of Amazon Web Services being useless, I've pulled my XML feeds. They'll be back once Amazon gets its act together.
