Who issues the credentials? A government? A third party like Verisign, Microsoft, or SCO? What happens in case the issuer turns hostile?
What happens if I do not trust your credential issuer? IP based solutions are the only ones that scale up to large workloads at the moment. (Hint: at the workloads my systems deal with, programmer time is cheaper than adding extra hardware).
I would turn it on for everything except a Tamil accent (for some reason I am being telemarketed to by Tamil with an extremely pronounced accent). I know a bunch of Tamilians who don't have any such accent, so I guess it's a side effect of the move into the smaller towns.
As a user, my concern isn't about development time at all. It's about how the application consumes my resources. Java is great on the server side (one app, long run times, lots of memory). On the desktop side? Not yet (less memory, lots of concurrent apps, short run times for most apps).
Oddly enough, Indians complain about having to stay up late to communicate with their US colleagues. I suspect that the staying up late is a factor of the particular US coast you are on.
You do realise that the cream of the Indian education system sits in US grad schools? The people complaining here are graduating from the equivalent of community colleges in the US.

Unless your firewall is a reverse proxy, you are still vulnerable to exploits in yur code, or the webserver.
Firewalls are bandaids, there is no replacement for well written, secure code.
Its only those in highly technical fields - or computer programmers etc - that usually need software with any real complex functionality/i.
Ever thought of how complex a word processor is? Or an office suite?
OS = "Not Windows *"

Got an example solution?
We use the SORBS dynamic block list in addition to the sbl-xbl. We have about two orders of magnitude more users than you do.
Just set reverse DNS up correctly. Then contact SORBS.
Or the watchers could just be outside the UK. Think a video version of Echelon.

I don't notice Nvidia and ATI distributing Linux kernel binaries.
Delete the cert? You don't need the full PKI infrastructure to use certificates.
But it is annoying and unwanted. Just not spam.
Which is why most places have two lines. And compared to a train carrying a thousand people, even the four lane highway is very inefficient.
Think of the children! There is porn on the Internet! It must be regulated.
Tis'ok. We all know /. mods are on crack. That was supposed to be funny, not insightful.
Which spamhaus list? The sbl-xbl is rather good. You might want to block email addresses with ' and non FQDN HELOs as well.

Or perhaps you will get a market for vendors selling operating systems? And more clued customers?
Well, if it is a reasonably small asteroid, you could get paid to drop it in the right places.

DEAR FRIEND,
I HAVE AN ASTEROID MADE OF NICKEL WORTH ONE TRILLION DOLLARS!
Though you could just drop it on Florida or Redmond.
Really?.
So you take out one city, and threaten to do the same to all the rest. Taking ut a city is fairly easy, particularly if you don't want to hold it.
