I didn't know about the credit, ok so not so bad then I guess. Thanks!

Interesting; was thinking about this myself recently - currently based in WA - but if we opt to moving to a new country altogether I believe we would always be liable for US fed tax which makes it a little less appealing (assuming we'd end up then being 'dual-taxed').

Treasure trove of white papers, product details, and jobs :)

Hey Andrzej, thanks for the feedback - sounds very logical. You're right - dropping it on GitHub will not make any $'s, but it might enable one or two other developers to get some value from it, and if I'm honest, that's ultimately what I want.

I'm not worried about making money from it per se - but would be happy to keep it maintained, updated and bug fixed if I could derive some nominal fee from it (I guess licensing).

I designed it to be extremely modular, so developers could add new spam checks and tune it to their needs with a minimum of fuss - it just might take some time to get all the components installed + running (I could create an install script methinks).

Thanks again!

Thanks pepijndevos. twitblock is a good anti-spam tool for users, but it's not an API like TWASE, so 3rd parties cannot integrate as easily.

I agree though that basic anti-spam filtering that'll catch the majority of spammer accounts is fairly basic, but it's still something you'd have to maintain and keep up with (as it's a somewhat moving target).

Love the idea - just added my project (aviso) - best of luck with it!
