[wp-testers] Posts still stalling when I hit publish...

[Kirk M]

Understanding that for every query made there has to be an 
acknowledgment of some sort. There is the off chance that successful 
contact is being made with the ping service and acknowledgment is made 
as well but nothing is being returned to the publishing module to finish 
the publishing process which stalls until pinging process times out (or 
something to that affect). Although you can trace what's going on within 
the WP admin itself with something like Firebug it's difficult to trace 
events external to the WP/server setup.

Just thinking out loud here but I'll publish my next post tomorrow from 
the WP editor and see what kind of experience I have (I do the majority 
of my writing/publishing from Windows live Writer).
