I recently received various spam like the one attached.
The reason i was targeted is that my email address is
listed as a contributor on the "Cocoon changes" page.
This is a serious threat to open source. We try to
acknowledge contributions by listing their name and address.
Yet that actually does them harm - they will get spammed.
So they may stop contributing, which equates to malaise
for open source.
The Apache websites provide well-structured web pages,
and excellent tools with which to process them. Foiled.
Spammers can harvest us so easily with a Cocoon-based
page scraper.
Cocoon can do something about this. We can get the
stylesheets for our xdocs to not generate any
mailto: links and we can obfuscate the actual addresses.
What do you think?
