[Trac-dev] SpamFilter on t.e.o


Hi Jonas,

First, I've noticed that we have now: [spam-filter] min_karma 0
Wasn't that higher in the past, like "3"? "1" should be the minimum, I 
think (and this would have caught those stupid "haha;" comments from 
this morning...).

Also, there's still the problem with the unicode or binary attachments 
(#5591). This is becoming increasingly annoying for the translators.
Last time I've tried to reproduce it locally with PostgreSQL (8.1 win32, 
accessed through psycopg2 2.0.6), I couldn't, so I think this is 
something best debugged on t.e.o itself.

Now that I'm talking about the spam-filter, I should mention that I've 
revived the spam-filter-captcha variant from Alec, and modulo one last 
change I'd like to make (#7173) I think it would be good to integrate it 
back in the "main" spam-filter plugin. We could then eventually enable 
it on t.e.o as well (but that's really a separate question).
What do people think?

That might explain the problem one of the Russian guys had in attaching his
patch to the ru_RU ticket.
He could post comments though.

People would need to enter a CAPTCHA before filing a bug or?

I think it was lowered because it generated a lot of false positives. 
But we might need to adjust it again. Is a lot of spam getting through?

I think it should be fixed in [6990]. The culprit seems to be spambayes 
which sometimes manages to generate invalid utf-8 byte sequences 
(probably by splitting utf-8 characters).
This fix is now installed on t.e.o so please let me know if the problems 
persists.

At times, quite a lot at 1, 2, or 3 karma points.
Of course there are also the "vicious" copy comment/paste same comment + 
a link spams, which go through in any case, unless the target link was 
explicitly blacklisted. It's mainly because of the latter kind that I 
thought about reviving the captcha stuff.
