[wp-forums] Looking for Consultants (and Where have I been?)

[ipstenu at ipstenu.org]

In my purely subjective tests, I've noticed that while it works just  
as well as before, I'm getting more spam on my blog where 2.5.0 is in  
play.

Three sites
Site A has 2.5.0 since it came out and gets 10-30 spam comments a day.
Site B had 2.4-whatever last week, got maybe 2 spam comments a week.   
Upgraded to 2.5 on Sunday and now I'm getting 10-30 a day.
Site C has 2.4-whatever and is only getting 2-5 a week.

It's ... weird.

All three sites run the same suite of blockers (Akismet and Bad Behavior).

No idea what it means, but it's working so I'm not sure if 2.5 is a  
spam magnet or what.
