[racket-dev] spam & planet bug reports

Well, I changed the regexp for the planet bug reports to insist that
there was a 'v' at the beginning and then dropped the regexp itself
from the error and the spammers just figured it out.

So I'm guessing that this means that they are serious about spamming
planet (why?!).

Sounds like it is time to look into recaptcha.
