Re: [Wikitech-l] Blocking Open Proxies

Dear Travis, The MetaProject on open proxies is quite active, albeit somewhat backlogged at the moment. We're in the process of developing a database to manage the open proxies that are blocked, which will solve several of the problems with the current system. Recently blocked open proxies are listed at [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WM:OP/B]; older blocks became too numerous to list manually, so they're categorized at [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Open_proxies_blocked_on_all_partici…] until the database is ready. (We'll need to have a bot check to make sure nobody added non-open-proxies to that category before importing into the forthcoming database.) Brion has nothing to do with the MetaProject to my knowledge. Yours sincerely, Jesse Martin (Meta admin 'Pathoschild')
