Since the beginning of Waegis existence one of our main strategies has been to provide extensions, plug-ins and add-ons for all common .NET powered content providers and keep our client extensions up to date with their recent changes. Thankfully we’ve been able to provide high quality client extensions for various versions of Telligent Community Server, Telligent Graffiti CMS and BlogEngine.NET as well as a rich .NET library that can be used easily to integrate any .NET application with Waegis API.
Recently Telligent dropped a new major build of its popular Community Server engine known as Community Server 2008.5 or Fall 2008 release in Beta 1 stage. A few days after the public announcement a few Waegis clients contacted us reporting that our spam rule for original Community Server 2008 doesn’t work with the new build. We immediately started examining the problem and found that there is a fundamental change in Community Server spam blocker system, so we contacted Wyatt Preul at Telligent and he helped us to figure out how to rewrite our spam rule in order to work with the new version (a guide about developing spam rules for Community Server 2008.5 is written by myself).
Since last week this spam rule has been ready but a few clients were privately testing it to make sure there is no problem. Today we’re happy to announce the public availability of a new Waegis spam rule for Community Server 2008.5 that is accessible via download page or from the direct download link.
As Community Server 2008.5 is still in Beta 1 and this new spam blocking mechanism is not tested extensively, there is a high chance for future changes that break our spam rule, so keep an eye on Waegis blog to stay up to date with the most recent changes.
