says "student" and "Poland", so the communication breakdown may be at play
here.

That's kind of what I was trying to get at - sorry if it didn't come across
as clearly as you worded it - and thanks for doing so! :)

>>>>Regarding the codex page and the "your wordpress", <snipped>

When I referred to the codex page, I was referring to the one that lists the
WP2.0 compatible plugins - that's the only one I was referring to. I'm not
sure about the others, and for my opinion on the "your wordpress" - it's a
nice idea, however like you'd mentioned, I think can get somewhat confusing
for people.

>>>>I'd also like to note that it is not uncommon to have discussions about
"favorite" plugins, etc.  <snipped again>

I totally agree - but he's not trying to have a discussion on the WP forum
about his favorite plugins - he's trying to drive traffic to his site by
writing an article about his favorite plugins, and then posting in the
forum, a link to the article - without really saying what it is clearly
enough (language barrier excused).

>>>>miklb

My $.02 as well - I really hope that my bringing it up isn't perceived to be
hostile or anything... I'm really curious as to everyone's thoughts on this,
and if my suggestion to at least break the link in the post will be taken is
all. It's not my call, and that's cool.
