I don't think it proves it. It has proved that for the wiki model to work,
the wiki needs to be set up with the sort of anti-spam measures I've
suggested previously on this list.

I, for one, would be happy to continue with a wiki, but probably not that
wiki, since:

   - as you pointed out, it's full of spam;
   - it seems to have no anti-spam features enabled;
   - Joe hasn't been seen on this list for a while and in any case hasn't
   provided us with a spam-free wiki.

If anyone else agrees with me and would be happy for me to maintain the
wiki, then could Mark or Drew please set CLUG's domain to redirect to
http://clug.sampablokuper.com ? I'd be happy to maintain it indefinitely.

Ta,

Sam
