[Python-Dev] PyPI comments and ratings, *really*?

Sure. However, spambots have avoided PyPI so far, and manual spamming
only had one incident (of somebody creating dozens of packages on a
single day).

My understanding is that spambots target systems where a comment form
is present even in the unloggedin state. In PyPI, you need to create
the account before you can comment.
