Hello, from my perspective, manifesto is good idea, but too idealistic :-). Manifesto don't stop anything. Spammers are bad guys. This guys don't read manifestos.
We need technical solutions: 1. Default behavior: don't accept messages from contacts without subscription. This is default for other IM systems. 2. Automatic ban of account after x subscriptions requests in time window. 3. ? something other 4. Support of this technical solutions will be propagated in s2s stream. By default, only servers supporting this technical solutions will be accepted for federation.
