First, I would like to thank DeViLbOi and all the team for putting LS.net back up, this is great! Although not technically part of the LS community (never released a theme or really contributed anything) I have been following and using LS since the very beginning and it's great to see waht used to be the main resource back up and running...
There is just one thing that I wonder if it's really a good thing: forcing people to login to do anything. I understand there are bandwidth concerns and maybe that's enough as a reason but I just wanted to point out that it seems to me that this compulsory login might put off a lot of people (taking my example I don't check on the new LS as much as I used to check on the old LS because of the login). Maybe I'm missing something in which case please point it out to me. Also this might have been discussed previously already in which case my apologies (and could you provide a pointer to the discussion?). Thanks for listening...
