Ryan, That's a good point - users should be a lot more likely to double check code pulled from a mailing list than from a hosted project and much of what we're doing is security sensitive.
I'm not sure there's any sensible way (short of manual code vetting) of discriminating as you suggest - anyone can open a Google Apps account and even providing credit card details to open a Premier edition account is little disincentive for someone using a 'borrowed' or virtual credit card number. Perhaps limiting submissions to us Google Enterprise Professional partners would be a good start but it's far from perfect and it seriously limits the number of potential contributors. I wonder if there's any Googlers who would be willing to maintain such a space? Sam On 11/20/07, Ryan Shelley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > The only issue I raise is quality control.
