Now it's up to volunteers to do ongoing spam clearing, and we don't have that much volunteers. I think a single-click button "Spammer" should allow committers to lock an account and hide all messages and files that he sent, but that still requires somebody to implement it.
I'd expect that to be pretty effective -- like graffiti artists, spammers want their work to be seen, and a site that quickly removes them will not be worth the effort for them. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
