DasBlog 1.9 Upgrade Complete (Almost)

I have almost completed upgrading Elegant Code to the recently released dasBlog 1.9. 
Thank you to Scott, Omar,
and crew for their hard work on the latest release.  I do not yet have my SMTP
working as I would like, therefore I am not yet doing comment approval, but I am looking
forward to that feature which should eliminate the comment spam that marked previous
versions.  During the upgrade, I cleaned spam from my old posts, btw.  Thank
you for that utility, Scott.

I hope that this release finally puts me over the top in terms of contributing to
an opensource project.  I have every intention of adding a reading list feature
and rendering macro.  Perhaps posting my intent here will cause me to actually
follow through.
