CFAkismet / Machblog challenge

I have been wanting to properly add Akismet to machblog but am unfamiliar with some concepts of MachII so I posted a challenge on Mach-II for ColdFusion's google group. I offered to buy the tutor something off their Amazon wishlist. Sure enough the offer was immediately accepted and here is the link How to incorporate CFAKismet with MachBlog. I have been working through the tutorial hence causing some sporatic issues with my rss feed and my comments/contact section.
