I can't really do a contrast with other blogging setups, as I'm
not totally familiar with them. I can say the following:
- Blog features will be optional (and disabled by default, but
easily enabled with something like $EnableBlog).
- There will be some mechanism to easily add comments to pages.
- The main approach that blogging will use is described in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wiki.pmwiki.user/20510 ,
albeit updated to take advantage of other features that have
been introduced into PmWiki since that time (primarily
pagelist templates and {$:var} page content variables).

Well, there are many ways of managing blogs and comments; PmWiki
will simply add its own "preferred" form. Other recipes and
mechanisms should continue to work.
