License

All code providing basic infrastructure services will be Open Source. Closed source code may be used to access APIs or used in VMs started with the exchange. However, no closed source code which provides service to the infrastructure or network will be promoted by the network. Infrastructure is meant to be open and trustworthy.

Concept

The underlying concept is a cryptcoin operated 'compute exchange' powered by multiple OpenStack cluster deployments. These deployments are run by 'providers' and managed by 'compute pools'. A provider can participate in multiple pools by running multiple virtual appliance 'controllers'.

Various compute pools can provide levels of reliability, diverse instance types, custom OS images, unique branding, community reach and more. Diversification is encouraged and welcome.

It is the intent of this project to create a fully distributed compute exchange which greatly minimizes the central control authority for server starts and access.

Comment Blacklist for WordPress

Sometimes a simple solution is a better solution.

Over the past couple of years, I have identified over 6,100 phrases, patterns, and keywords commonly used by spammers and comment bots in usernames, email addresses, link text, and URIs. This blacklist is still a work in progress and there is certainly room for optimization. Suggestions are always appreciated.

How Do I Use It?

Copy the list of keywords, paste it into the Comment Blacklist field of your WordPress Discussion Settings panel, and click the “Save Changes” button.
