Trac seems to become a significant spam problem on the otherwise completely spam-free mailing list. Should we consider requiring accounts for trac as we do for the wiki?
Would requiring accounts for posting content with hyperlinks (except for a whitelist containing coreboot.org and various pastebins) fix the problem? IIRC all spam posts had hyperlinks inside.
IMO, I get more spam from other sources daily then I've seen from Trac in the last 6 months. Unless the problem gets worse, my 2 cents is to deal with a little spam and avoid crippling Trac.
