[TxMt] Blogging bundle issues and questions

[Garrett Murray]

Yeah, sorry this message hit the server well after I talked to Brad
about this stuff... it took nearly 5 hours for this message to show up
on the mailing list (is that normal?)

All of these issues have been resolved, including the last one which
was my mistake.

Thanks again,
g
