    [greg-dev] spam in the trac tickets

    Plop !
    
    Hmm this is quite an issue but without any solutions for the present 
    moment...
    
    I'm actually waiting for trac 0.9 to be available in the stable branch 
    of debian to upgrade everyhting and see if some new options are 
    available for this...
    
    The only solution i can think at the moment is to change the meta to
    this :
    
    "<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW" />"
    
    I went to check this on the trac website, actually nothing is possible 
    when using a "collaborative/wiki" system with anonymous "id"s.
    There looking at a brand new solution named "SpamLookup"
    
    http://bradchoate.com/weblog/2005/04/07/spamlookup
    
    The trac ticket about spam is this one :
    http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/ticket/1145
    
    
    At the moment i think we should "bear" with it, or change the meta.
    Any ideas ?
