Due to recent frustration of new users (GSoC students) I've disabled
the TracSpamFilter plugin.
Problem were mostly:
- Legit content considered spam by external services
- Legit content considered spam by bayesian filter
Given the effort we make to accept new users, I've disabled it
alltogheter.
NOTE: configuration cannot be changed from the web at the moment,
because all trac.ini are not writeable by the webserver user
(you'd get a forever-spinning browser request)
Shall spam come back, head on to /etc/trac/ and revert the
git commit which disabled the plugin:
Additinal info: some instance configurations also had the
spamfilter enabled locally, I removed all those local references
so that all instances now only use the global config.
Shall you want to revert more, all those local configs are
also under a git repository, so:
cd /var/www/trac/env && git log
--strk;
