I sympathize. That captcha addition is one of several tools we're leveraging currently to combat the ongoing spam/scammer/vandalism problems on wiki.openstack.org, as an alternative to shutting it down completely. Unfortunately even now I still spend a chunk of every day blocking new accounts created by abusers and cleaning up all their modifications, but am hoping that with other improvements we have pending the onslaught will lessen and we can revisit some of the more intrusive mechanisms on which we've been forced to rely (for example, I think we should be able to configure it so that users whose previous edits have been confirmed by a wiki admin are added to a group that bypasses the captcha, and then get a team of wiki groomers in the habit of adding known good accounts to that group). -- Jeremy Stanley __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
