Crossposting + importing/merging experiments

[hope]

Okay, so, considering the dramallama of LJers being OMG ABANDONED by Dw crossposters suggesting they comment with OpenID:

Ideally*, I'd love to be able to crosspost and allow comments in both locations, then import comments from LJ on a regular basis into the original Dw post.

So, I did a couple of tests to see if it could work like that already....

- Posts that automatically direct comments to Dw are duplicated in an import. I assume because the additional "this is crossposted, comment thence" line suggests it's a different post.

- Posts that have comments open in both places aren't duplicated, as the content of the entry is identical... But comments on LJ aren't imported into the original Dw post.


Can't find any mention of anything like this in the bugtracker - anyone know if it's on the cards?


* Well actually, ideally I'd love all my friends and fandoms to just come over to Dw. *sighs wistfully and enjoys Fantasy Land*

might be worth raising it as a whatif to get picked up, because it's a bloody good idea.

Will look into this too, yup :)
