	Right. I installed the module and did a couple of tries modifying LocalSettings.php but could not get a captcha displayed for anonymous postings. Since I could not make it work then I maintained the policy of forbidding anonymous posts because of the spam targeting this wiki. I did not work on the problem again since October 16, explaining why anonymous postings is still forbidden. -- [[User:FredericBaud\|FredericBaud]] 10:38, 30 October 2007 (EDT)		Right.

		+	I had to turn the http://www.barcampbank.org into authentified edit mode because a series of spam on the main page. This wiki does not have a lot of activity so it should not be really a problem. It would be nice if we could get the captchas working for anonymous edit. I don't have a lot of time on my hands right now, nor do I feel this is a high priority. It would be nice anyhow. -- [[User:FredericBaud\|FredericBaud]] 12:30, 27 November 2007 (EST)

		+	Friday 19 Oct, 2007: we just got an outage today. The hosting services harshly rebooted the server without prior warning. I've just beginning restarting the standard services (http, named,...). I know I should put this in the boot script, but I'm not used of having server reboot, and you what, you tend to become lazy.
