Title: SpamBayes: Background Reading
Author-Email: spambayes@python.org
<h1>Background Reading</h1>
<h2>Theory</h2>
Sharpen your pencils, this is the mathematical background (such as it is).
<ul>
<li>The paper that started the ball rolling:
Paul Graham's <a href="http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html">A Plan for Spam.</a>
<li>Gary Robinson has an
<a href="http://radio.weblogs.com/0101454/stories/2002/09/16/spamDetection.html">interesting essay</a>
suggesting some improvements to Graham's original approach.
</ul>

<h2>Mailing list archives</h2>
<p>There's a lot of background on what's been tried available from
the mailing list archives. Initially, the discussion started on
the <a href="">python-dev</a> list, but then moved to the
<a href="">spambayes</a> list.
<ul>
<li>The fun started in <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-August/thread.html">August 2002</a>.
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-August/thread.html#28085">thread 1</a>, <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-August/thread.html#28377">thread 2</a>.
<li>But wait, there's more! In the <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html">September</a> archive,
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html#28503">thread 1</a>,
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html#28506">thread 2</a>,
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html#28534">thread 3</a>,
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html#28590">thread 4</a>,
<a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-September/thread.html#28620">thread 5</a>.
<li>The discussions then moved to the spambayes <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail-21/spambayes/">mailing list</a>.
</ul>
<h2>CVS commit messages</h2>
<p>Tim Peters has whacked a whole lot of useful information into CVS
commit messages. As the project was moved from an obscure corner of the
python CVS tree, there's actually two sources of CVS commits.</p>
<ul>
<li>The older CVS repository via <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/python/python/nondist/sandbox/spambayes/?hideattic=0">view CVS</a>, or the <a href="presfchangelog.html">entire changelog</a>. Development here stopped on the 6th of September 2002.
<li>After that, work moved to this project's <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/spambayes/spambayes/">CVS tree</a>
</ul>
