Our @$work bugzilla instance was left alone for a year or two (wasn't publisized at all) and then started getting massive ammounts of spam that were a real PITA to cleanup after the fact. I doubt there are as many robots targetting Trac as Bugzilla yet but I'd suggest trying to limit this problem before it starts as it's an almost certainty that someone, someday, will have to clean up the mess... -J -- _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
