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.

I think this was the reason why Peter Donald already changed his mail addresses in Avalonland to a none machine usable form.
