Is this a statement or a proposal? ;)
To be honest, having been on the receiving end of collector spam very
often myself on my own site I think it is a _good idea_ to prevent
anything becoming visible that anonymous users (or bots) type into
web forms. There are many ways to go about it, and for zope.org it
would probably be a good idea to say "you need an account and you
must log in".
On the other hand many people will argue that this creates an
obstacle and raises the bar for people who might be helpful by
providing feedback, yet can't be asked to log in. This argument has
always seemed unsolveable for me.
