Hey,

I'm open to suggestions for other textcha questions -- I just went with
the two on there off the top of my head / after a few rounds of "dangit
the spammers used mechanical turk to break that one".

I can also try reconfiguring moin to only require a textcha for
anonymous users and new users. I think most of the spam has been stopped
by preventing them from being able to register -- thanks for the prod to
revisit the settings.
