Is this manual spamming or some robot doing it?
Would a "what characters in the image" question block a spam robot..?
For manual spamming, in the same line - would a "trivia Lucene/code
question" block at least some spammers?
Just a thought, though I don't know there is sufficient infrastructure for
either of the two...

Another thing I am working on is getting change notifications sent to  
the commits list, so that we will (hopefully) notice these kinds of  
changes sooner.  I am not sure about the asking part, as I don't know  
who would want that job.

At any rate, the bottom line is we should keep an eye out for this  
kind of stuff going forward.  Sigh.

btw, the Lenya Wiki is experiencing the same problems. I think it would 
make sense that people have to ask for a Wiki account on the development 
list, otherwise one just keeps chasing these spammers endlessly ...

just my 2 cents
