[spam-stopper] another lyceum ?

[Shane Bishop]

I've verified that akismet works fine in lyceum. However, for my 
purposes, I want akismet to be a system-wide plugin. Due to interface 
differences, the 'update api key' page does not work in lyceum. Is there 
a way to manually input this, so I can at least test that it will work 
as a system-wide plugin?
