Re: [libreoffice-website] Re: Wiki updated and new Captcha questions

May i make a suggestion as there is mention of Captchas are we talking
about ReCaptcha or just the normal Captcha? If Captcha is it possible to
replace with ReCaptcha as its free to sign up and would hopefully help
prevent wiki spamming.

Regards
Jonathan
