Getting my WPMU DEV Wings
I'm new here

Hi All,
I am just setting up my first MU site and I have been going through all the forums so that I can pick all your brains.
You guys are a bunch of geniuses!
But this question has to do with Comment Spam (as mentioned in the title)
I have been looking for a site wide comment spam control and everything I find is dated.
I have the Farms Comment Spam Pack but the last comment I see on it is from about a year ago and I was wondering if it still works with 2.7?
Also I read a couple of long post about how Andrew made a MU version of SK2 but had to pull it because DD said it wasn't GPL.
It is GPL now:

And I was wondering if the SK2 WPMU would be re-released?

Very surprised that Dave did that after all those times he stressed the non-GPLness of the plugin. I'm kind of curious to know why.
In case you haven't seen it, we just had a discussion on comment spam over on one of Andrea's sites:

We do an inhouse spam system based on Spam Assassin but, for projects and elsewhere, we recommend using SixApart's solution:

And last I'd heard DD had dropped development of SK2. looks like they google-code'ed it back in July. Personally, I foudn it added a lot of crap it didn't need to.
