In working with the Zend sales guy, he'd be willing to sell copies of 
Zend Studio for $125.  I personally think we could get him down to 
$100.  Anybody willing to pay that much for licenses?

I would imagine that a button wouldn't look too good on most themes, though.

We could list that in a "how to prevent comment spam" FAQ entry, though,
together with the idea posted by Matthew Cox over on geeklog-devtalk,
which is to add an entry for comment.php to your robots.txt

We could also try some tricks with the referer, i.e. if referer does not
contain $_CONF['site_url'] then don't display comment.php (but redirect
to somewhere else).

The problem with the latter approach is that the referer is somewhat
unreliable (thus probably blocking a few legit users) and not too hard to
fake.

bye, Dirk

Groklaw has a link (from an external site) to a comment entry form. An
automatic redirect on both the comment entry and comment submit would be
very helpfull against stupid linking.

Greetings,

I think that I'd be interested in the Zend IDE at that price?

gl-bot will be back.  I need to get settled down into my new place
first.  You'll probably see him again this weekend with any luck.

I might be interested as well, I want to play around with the free
version a bit more first though.
