This release of Autoloader is to fix a crashing bug when no plugins in the minchin.pelican.readers
namespace are loaded.
I also updated a number of other plugins to blacklist v1.2.0 to avoid these crashes.

AutoLoader is a plugin for Pelican, a static site generator written in Python.
AutoLoader is a “meta plugin” in that it doesn’t directly affect your Pelican site, but rather works to make your other plugins better. Previously, the plugin was set to autoload plugins in my minchin.pelican.plugins
namespace, and thus will extend that to my minchin.pelican.readers
namespace.

In trying to pick a code of conduct (for my projects), it seems helpful to remember the “community”, as such, is often basically me, short (in length) is generally better, and just about anything can be weaponized by bad faith actors.

Static Comments is a plugin for Pelican, a static site generator written in Python. It is meant as a drop in replacement for the Pelican Comment System.
Static Comments allows you to have a comment section on your Pelican blog, while maintaining your blog as a completely static webpage and without relying on any external services or servers; just an email address is required. Comments are stored as text files, similiar in structure to Pelican articles. This gives you complete control over the comments appearing on your site and allows you to back them up with the rest of your site.
