Jim,
Useful info. I've linked to the list of sysops from
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/DSpace_Wiki:Protected_page#Getting_Permission_to_Edit_Pages
I couldn't figure out how to do this within internal wiki [[ ]] markup (due
to the &group=sysop) so it looks like an external link []. Please fix this
if you know how.
The larger issue of the lockdown--and whether to install a captcha--remains.
Robert, is this sufficient documentation for now? Or what else would you
recommend?

If you go to the user list:
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Special:Listusers
you can see who is & who isn't a "DSapceCadet", but it's probably
better to start with the list of sysops:
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php?title=Special%3AListusers&group=sysop
Not everyone has their email listed, but with a little sleuthing
(doing a pattern match on wiki names vs mailing list emails) should
get you started.
cheers,
Jim
