As others have explained, this is a draft, and wasn't intended for wide consumption. The easiest way I've found to show people an unpublished WordPress blog post draft is to just "save page as" in the browser and then put the resulting file up somewhere. I've done this before without problem, but this is the first time I've sent the link to a public mailing list. Lesson learned! Next time I'll send it privately to the relevant people and mark it clearly as a draft. (Or if anyone can tell me a better way to circulate a WordPress draft -- one that works for a blog that is aggregated on planet.mozilla.org -- I'd be happy to hear it.)
I've stripped out all the WordPress links and stuff from the draft post, because that was confusing lots of people. I've also added a big header at the top explaining it's a draft.
The final post, which won't be much different from this version, will go up on my blog (http://blog.mozilla.com/nnethercote/) in the next day or two.
There hasn't been much meaningful discussion in this thread, and I don't think it will hurt anyone to wait a couple days for your post to be ready. So we'll bury this one and invite you (or anyone) to submit it then.
Ha, perfectly reasonable. Sharing a draft post is an interesting question though, and one I never found a good way to do back when I wrote some wordpress blog posts at a previous job. And according to wordpress.stackexchange[0] (there seems to be a stackexchange site for everything...), there is no easy way to do it.

Apologies for the confusion!
