The basic problem with CAPTCHA, registration, etc, is that it
erects a barrier to access. Some users would give up at that
point and not contribute.

Ideally, there should be a method that determines if someone
is truly a person, and that determination should happen
once, but work work for all forums.

Is there potential for wine forums to co-operate with other
forums (eg linux, firefox, openoffice) so that passing one
CAPTCHA/registration grants access to a whole group of
forums at once?

This would increase the incentive for passing the CAPTCHA
or registration, and people would be more keen to go
to the extra effort.

Also, if one forum notices a robot posting, they can ban
it from all forums in one hit, allowing the effort of
moderation to be shared amongst forums.
