Hello,

I see that there is a lot of spam coming to this list through the CVS
account request form, I think it would be good to add some kind of
CAPTCHA program to this form, so that there wouldn't be (so much) spam
anymore.

I invented (and committed) probably the most complicated CAPTCHA
system ever made and challenge any spammer to try cracking it!

Love, Hannes

I'm not a spammer, but I would love to give it a try ;)

Looks like somebody forgot the "I want an @php.net email address" in
the list of reasons why they are requesting an account ;)
