[Tech] Re: Got /usr to 96%

[Jamie O'Keefe]

Looks like the cause of Zope's growth was that spammers decided to add
lots of topics to the underused Membership message board.

I deleted it so they cannot get in.  It is still in the undo log so we
should be able to get it back if we want it.  I checked other message
boards and did not see any other attacks, though I did see some spam
back from 2005 for one of our events.

I hope that will stop the problem for now.
