… just do an AntiSpamCamp ?

By the way, there is an upcoming announcement on mtw which might be related to what you guys are saying. I am just waiting for a couple of interested parties to answer their email

Hum, let me think about it for a while, but I think we could round-up some interested parties and post a bounty for that… because we might know other startups in Montreal using mediawiki, we just might…

Haha – nope, are there anti-spam companies in Montreal?

In all seriousness though, we’d be happy to help guide anyone through using Defensio’s open API to build a solid spam plug-in for MediaWiki.

Hey Heri, great report. I can’t recommend enough the Cal Henderson book, it’s great and does a complete “tour du jardin”, covering several important topics on the subject, even scaling the development *process*.

As for YulStart requiring a login, it’s only because I had a sh*tstorm of spam hitting it a few weeks ago, I had to delete 10-20 spam pages per day. Sorry about the inconvenience, if someone is willing to implement an anti-spam plugin for mediawiki, I am all ears, not that we would know any local companies developing anti-spam services with an API… ;-)
