Folks:

The wiki has been subject to a lot of spam recently ... both spam posts and bogus accounts.

I just put in place a new security mechanism that, I think, will be impossible for spammers to defeat (unless they're one of us).

Go to http://wiki.midrange.com and try to create a new account (if you are logged in, you'll have to log out).

If you have suggestions for additional security codes, or think the current ones need work, let me know privately.
