I'm wondering if there is a particular issue the UKeiG group has forgot to
address in their setup?
Is this a problem in an older version of xwiki and they're needing an
upgrade?
Or is this a more fundamental problem that may affect other xwiki
installations?
What are the best ways of avoiding "spam on user profile pages"??
Isn't there an easy way to integrate jcaptcha to side-step auto-generated
spam?

Sunday, July 13, 2008 The UKeiG xWiki is about to close
The UKeiG xWiki at
http://ukeig.xwiki.com/ will be closed down on Monday
28th July. The UKeiG xWiki was always an experiment and we chose xWiki
because of the software's flexibility, power and sophistication. It was an
interesting experiment and in the initial stages highlighted the importance
of controlling access rights at all levels! We succeeded in blocking spam on
the main pages but have still not mastered the art of stopping spammers
clogging up the user profiles pages :-(
UKeiG is now researching options for a Content Management System for its
main web site and our 'spec' includes wiki and blog capability. Our main
blog will remain for the time being at
http://www.ukeig.org.uk/blog/ and
powered by Blogger, and our Wordpress Web 2.0 blog will stay at
http://ukeig.wordpress.com/. If you want to download copies of the wiki
pages now is the time to do it. We do, though, have a local backup of the
content so let Karen Blakeman (karen.blakeman(a)rba.co.uk) know if you
desperately need access to anything.
