Nice work, Shane!!!
Great strategy for dealing with Spam. Does marking a comment as spam
hide it until approved or nuked?
Marking it as spam just creates a report entry, it doesn't hide the
comment until an admin deals with the report. Otherwise this could be
open to abuse.
PS - Do we have this up anywhere as a Seam 2 example? I have to
imagine we do... but this is something people might actually be
interested in / could even be spawned off as an opensource project of
its own (hopefully getting some help to upgrade to Seam 3 and CDI)
Yes, both
seamframework.org and in.relation.to are based on the wiki
example found in the Seam 2 examples directory. I don't know if I'd
want to upgrade it to Seam 3, I think the effort would be better spent
on other things (unless a community member volunteered, however in all
the years of its existence I don't think anyone has ever contributed
anything to it).

Oops, I also forgot to add that I changed the subject line for the
forum
mailing list to include the forum name also. So now, instead of the
subject appearing like this:
Re: [seam-forums] Some forum topic
it will appear like this:
Re: [seam-forums] [Seam Users] Some forum topic
Hopefully no-one has any objections to this change - I figured it
would
be useful for people who might like more fine-grained control over
their
mail filters.
