It looks like there’s a continuing run of spam against the RubyGarden  
wiki. I’ve just cleaned up 8 or so pages that were defaced multiple  
times today. Anyone with a couple of minutes might want to take the  
time to check things out and clean up a page or two if needed.

Are you sure you didn’t stumble into the tar-pit? Try logging in and  
see if the spam disappears.
