[spam-stopper] MediaWiki spam fight discussion. Fighting distributors of spamming software.

[halz]

I kicked off a discussion over on the MediaWiki mailing list about spammers and spam fighting:

There's a full thread of discussion there, although some of it wont be relevant to blog spam, but my original point was...  could we take the fight a bit closer to the doorsteps of the spammers? Could we attack back at distributors of tools like 'SENuke Xcr' and 'Ultimate Demon'?
