Dear all, regarding Christmas netbeans wiki attacks we decided to prefer clean content to free registration. Based on this we've disabled registrations on this wiki page. We are also working on the solution which can prevent spam or bot accounts creation. As short term solution ILM can create all the accounts manually based on email sent to [email protected] alias. ILM is able to support this solution during January. If this solution becomes a longer term solution we need to ask somebody from Netbeans for help with manual registrations. As long term solutions we consider these possibilities: - add special module for authentication (registration mail, verification code etc.), it looks it doesn't exist in JSPWiki community, we need any coder to write it - delegation of manual registration to other responsible team or person from NB through [email protected] mail alias - return back to unsecured solution as it was till now (insecure solution and high risk - we don't recommend this) - special edit of source codes of JSPWiki to automatically reset password and log out newly registered user and send him new password via email (this should be probably done by some Java coder) The enhanced registration module looks like the best choice, but we need someone to code it. We are waiting for your input and also for possible help with coding Java and other JSPWiki modifications. We will inform you about progress. Kind regards Matej Pilat
