I had to upload an crufty dataset to disqus with many comment records that had become corrupt. I made several changes to enable disqus_export deal more gracefully with bad data and output useful information.
details:
add option to specify a log file to which all errors will be output
--dry-run now will do full data processing but stop short of uploading data
add -j options to skip past the first comment stored (to get around broken data)
add -c option to continue on errors
rename a variable to avoid conflict with model name
give more informative output including progress report
give more informative error reporting including details of models which are corrupt
give more informative output on http errors
