Good question. :) >> 2) anonymous users can post comments that won't become publicly visible until >> an authenticated user acknowledges them or comments on them. > > Can you work out this design more?

I was suggesting that you'd sign in as a project member and would then see all comments. They just wouldn't show up on the public web sites without further action. I think that matches the normal work flow. External users usually do some kind of upstream talk anyway. It would be rare that no project member is involved in a patch contribution. And new contributions would go through the bug tracker first anway, right? > Also, AFAIK our bug tracker doesn't support > anonymous comments either, so I don't think this is an important use > case. >> That should be enough to keep the system open to everybody and to keep spam away. > > It's also more work to code. Sure, it's also just an idea from my side. Stefan
