I don't mean to advocate restrictions before we have a flood of spam but 
I do want to make sure that our response is proportionate.

Seems very suspicious. Let's not scar on the first cut though :)

Good to know, thanks.

We got a couple of spam events this morning too, this time in the wiki. 
To deal with this, I have temporarily reduced the permissions for the 
general authenticated group of users and added all accounts to an 
additional group that provides the edit and create permissions.

I am not advocating at this point that this should become our default 
policy and, unless this is actually seen as a better policy, I expect to 
return edit and create permissions to all authenticated users in the 
near future. One consequence of leaving the permissions in this state is 
that a new registration will also need to ask for the edit permissions 
to be added to their account.

Cheers,
     Gary

There's no special policy. This was obviously spam... you're right in
just closing the thing. "Closing as invalid."

(theoretically, somebody trying to open a valid ticket would re-open)

Suspicious ticket raised

Posted by Gary <ga...@wandisco.com>.
Hi

Sorry to seem so suspicious but I guess everyone would be surprised if 
this turned out to be a genuine ticket. I am going to assume that it is 
malicious. Unless anyone can provide me with a good reason to do 
otherwise, I will close the account and find a way of dealing with the 
ticket. Until then I suggest that nobody visits the link in the ticket.

I realise that this is, so far, an isolated case at this point but we 
should probably consider an appropriate procedure for dealing with these 
situations, unless there is already a policy given by the ASF.

Cheers,
     Gary
