[pLog-svn] Are these plugins still relevant/useful?

[Paul Westbrook]

Hello,
    Bad Behavior does not catch all of the comment spam for me.  But  
when used in combination with Akismet, none of the spam comments get  
through.   Currently, Akismet doesn't block trackbacks, so the  
validatetrackbacks plugin is still relevant.

    The author of Bad Behavior stated that the "stable" version of  
Bad Behavior will permit 0.1% to 10% of spam to pass through, to  
prevent false positives, and recommends a backup like Akismet.

I am not sure about dnsantispam or hiddeninput.
