ok, last posting on this list - a few people exhibited interest in helping out and setting me straight. i just wanted to make a final call for any more.

i've got the general architecture migrated to perl. the class/ namespace stuff is a complete mess as its from python which has a very different approach, and as a result i'm also passing around variables/settings rather clumsily. its really all just a complete mess internally right now , but it shows the general idea as a proof of concept.

right now the 'Img' rendering just does text on osx with some lines. an 'img' is basically just a stack of filters/classes on background (i got the idea from the imaging section of a python captcha i modeled my python captcha on) i haven't had time to learn much of Imager and will likely need to write a filter to handle warping or other tasks. the captcha creation/validation is currently within the main bit of the module, but i'd like to bust it out into a pluggable subclass so it can be user specified.

in any event, the functional mess i hacked up in some spare time is here:
there is internal pod on Captcha.pm describing most things

        view via trac:
                http://dev.2xlp.com/trac/browser/mod_perl/PerlCaptcha/trunk
        or svn access
                $ svn co http://dev.2xlp.com/svn/mod_perl/PerlCaptcha/trunk

i'll move all further discussion offlist now
