Mainly to Larry, Over the weekend, I've noticed that there is a wave of ongoing spam attack. I've deleted some pages and banned accounts, and I saw this morning that you've deleted some pages too. Thank you very much for doing it.
In fighting this wave, I've improved a bit on the tooling. If you haven't been using it, check out https://github.com/jenkinsci/backend-confluence-spam-remover and it'd be great if you can also help us grow this tool. For example, once we identify a spam, it'd make a lot of sense to delete all posts and pages created by the user, and it'd be nice to roll back changes he made. I'm also trying to improve the account app to help us fight with spam attacks. Some of the ideas include: * force some time between the registration to the activation to prevent spammers from getting new accounts quickly. * monitor IP addresses from which the sign-up is happening Any other suggestions welcome. -- Kohsuke Kawaguchi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
