Hi everyone,

I wrote a script to export all wiki pages in all versions, look for keywords 
in it and delete all versions of a page with those keywords. Now we have
502 revisions less in our wikis, but I hope all spam is gone.

If you find any spam, please do not edit the page and delete the lines.
Instead: a) delete that version (I can create an account for you so you
will have permission to do that).
b) send a mail to me with the link, so I can have a look and add that
new keyword to my script.

if you recently edited something, please check if it is still there. 
if  not, please notify me, I have a full backup and can restore your
change. I tried to look through all those changes I removed,
but at 502 revisions and most diffs about 200 to 1000 lines
I can't.

I will now run the script every time someone reports new spam,
or maybe even daily or more often. of course scanning for spam
all the time is not a nice future, and I hope we don't get false
positives, but that could be possible.

I will try to update to latest trac version, which has a user management.
with that version you will need to create an account before editing
something. I don't like those account idea, but with this much spamming
I see no alternative. as an alternative you can any time send an email
to opensc-devel or opensc-user mailing list if something is wrong or
could be improved.

I hope that I cought all spam and deleted no content and thus the
wiki documentation is usable for you again. if I missed something,
please let me know.

Regards, Andreas
