I cannot talk for the admins of trac.edgewall.org. However, on trac-hacks.org we use TracSpamFilter (with all but the Akismet stuff being enabled) and some custom mod_security rules. The mod_security rules block POSTs for new tickets that have author set to "anonymous", component set to "SELECT A HACK" and contain at least one link. This filters a common type of spam that before hit the site. This has been implemented as mod_security rules because it was easier for me than writing a new filter strategy. At some point this will be changed. The rest gets run through a large amount of regular expressions, see http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/BadContent .
