Comment (by dd32):

 > Or can we just throw Akismet in front of comment edit submissions?

 That's what the Trac update is for, the version we're running doesn't run
 it's spam-checks on edits (Which that spammer knows), only on new comment
 submissions.

 > how about disabling the comment editing feature for new accounts?

 I don't think Trac has the ability for us to do that in it's permission
 models, and Trac itself has no context of how old an account is.

 I'll raise it with systems..
