Good points. I do think it makes sense to have a reCaptcha option among others that might arise.

On a side note, I'm fooling around with SpamFilter to make it a lot more extensible. I have this idea about stackable "Inspector" objects that extract the current (rather complex) logic into separate implementions, but which collaborate on the outcome. The driver for this was the need to have better integration with the view layer and additional captcha systems.

I'll run the design by you when it firms up, but my initial experiments look very promising. I think you'll like it a lot.

Google is well known for their embrace and extinguish -tactic. It would be unlikely that ReCaptcha will get any new development.

The captcha system we have is designed to be pluggable, so it should be possible to add other systems as well. More the merrier; then we won't be subject to corporate whims...

Any thoughts on ReCaptcha? Google just bought them. I thought this
might be a nice addition to what we offer now (Asirra) -- maybe even a
replacement for it.
