This version of the software is still an alpha version. However, it is relatively usable and has enough rate limiting in place to be resilient against most spammers. There are an almost total lack of administration features, however, and multi-user blogs would definitely push the software's current limits. There is no CAPTCHA to help stop or slow automated spam. Technically, the software can be used in production for one person's small blog. This is not recommended, as there are likely bugs and there may be serious security flaws present at this stage in development. A great many features are planned and not yet implemented. Use at your own risk.
