Does someone know how to deal with these damn spammers? They are trying to fill out the Trac with pointer to their bloody websites. It seems that Trac doesn't allow to remove comments. There is some sort of web administration portal plus a plug-in that are meant to allow it, but those didn't work for me. Any idea? By the moment I've added a few redirection rules to hide affected bugs, but we must do something with this. If Trac design is this broken we'll have to change it or something.. :-( Ideas?
only ones that are not PC. I've done a significant amount of work on proof of work systems as a defense against spam. it may be possible to set up a proof of work filter for the web interface and it's definitely possible for the e-mail interface. The appropriate approach would use the proof of work puzzle as a proxy for reputation system rather than a strict "sender-pays" model as found in anti-spam.
I am giving a talk on this topic at BBN Cambridge MA on Wednesday the 24th. If people are interested, I will publish the slides with some commentary.
