So, with this news, we’re going to get those arch little thumbsup/down on the default WordPress?
I’d imagine it would be up to the theme designer as to whether the functions go in or not - then again, like gravatars, it will presumably be a stipulation of inclusion on WP Themes.
Dr Mike, he not pleased, and will presumably be having all his comments corporately deleted, again - no irony visible there then…
