[Idea] reCAPTCHA JSF component
Just came across the http://recaptcha.net/ website and wondered if
anyone is willing to develop (and contribute) a reCAPTCHA JSF
component for Tomahawk?
>From the website:
"reCAPTCHA is a free CAPTCHA service that helps to digitize books.
A CAPTCHA is a program that can tell whether its user is a human or a
computer. You've probably seen them — colorful images with distorted
text at the bottom of Web registration forms. CAPTCHAs are used by
many websites to prevent abuse from "bots," or automated programs
usually written to generate spam. No computer program can read
distorted text as well as humans can, so bots cannot navigate sites
protected by CAPTCHAs."
Shouldn't be that difficult. There are already some implementations
for different languages/systems but none yet for JSF:
http://recaptcha.net/resources.html
So, when beijing08 bores you - this is your opportunity! ;-)

Don't we have a captcha component already?

Let me check what should be added, and I will attach this feature soon to
the <t:captcha> ;).

+1, rather than a new component

of course I know we already have a captcha comp. ;-)
perhaps it's possible to add the "reCAPTCHA" functionality as a
feature to the existing component?

I think what Manfred is suggesting is that we implement a reCAPTCHA
component specifically rather than captcha in general. For those
people who want to secure their applications and promote digital book
scan correcting at the same time :-)
