Hi Edy, thanks for your work in this, it's an important topic indeed. On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 7:10 PM, Eduard Moraru <[email protected]> wrote:
Hi devs,
We have been getting reports recently of people getting a lot of SPAM in their public XWiki instances, even if they had the CAPTCHA module [1] enabled on their comments/registration pages.
These past 2 days I`ve been investigating the current status of the CAPTCHA module and what is the state of the art in fighting SPAM.
I have produced the following document [2] that I would like you to have a look at and tell me what you think and/or what is your experience with XWiki's CAPTCHA module and with fighting SPAM in general.
TL;DR: I would like to propose that we move to Google's new NO CAPTHA reCAPTCHA as the default CAPTCHA solution and that we implement a configurable back-end that allows admins to easily switch between CAPTCHA engines/services.
+1 Thanks, Guillaume
Thanks, Eduard
