I’m finding that the lack of auto-trackback, and therefore having to C&P the trackback URL of another blogger’s post into a window on my Publish page, is really getting old. I just can’t seem to get into the habit of doing this, and I can’t understand why I should need to.

Is auto-trackback on the list of features to be added anytime soon?

auto trackback is in and works.  You need to setup the bookmarklet and then click the bookmarklet from the persons page - it will bring up a list of possible trackbacks and you just check the one you want to hit. =)

Sorry, but that’s not auto-trackback.

He is likely referring to the parsing of links out of an entry, going to the page and looking for the Trackback RDF information and then automatically Trackbacking those entries.

If that is enabled, I hope it will be an option.  I had that turned off in MT because it was always impossibly slow. =)

Oh, it will be an option, most definitely.

I’m hoping Paul’s reply above means it’s in the works.

No nagging.  Not polite.

But yes, it is in the works.
