We have a problem on a trac server of someone uploading a huge number<br>
of junk files. Is there anything one can do to put a cap on this? i.e.<br>
restrict the number of files per hour, or something else that will<br>
stop spammers. We already ask the number of primes &lt; 1000 to allow<br>
people to post, but clearly someone is able to work that out, then<br>
post their junk.<br>

The TracSpamFilter usually gives good results... but before you could<br>
use it, the first step would be to switch your wiki from MoinMoin to<br>
