The World Bank's blogs have recently come under an increasing number of spam comments, despite spam filters which already sometimes I struggle to get through! A new system will be up November 16th I've been told, so we should be able to more quickly approve comments after then. Until then:

- if you have a genuine comment, send us an email to let us know it is in there - or just email it to one of us and we are happy to post it for you.

- we will continue to never approve a spam comment, so stop wasting your and our time spammers.
