I sent message with a similar intent to the wplug-internet mailing list, and haven't heard anything back. I think I'm on that committee. I don't know who else is, or if there is anyone else on the mailing list.
<br><br>I've setup a few media-wiki's, and there was another request for a calendar plugin. I could give some of my time to this.<br><br>I don't know where to go for access to the machine. I don't know who to talk to about that.

If you look at the wiki today, you'll see that I just had to kill a<br>pretty decent amount of spam. That sucks. I hate spam. It makes our<br>wiki less valuable and takes personal time to get rid of the spam.<br><br>
As you may have heard, Luis von Ahn, Carnegie Mellon's resident genius<br>and the developer of the captcha, has recently released the recaptcha<br>project. Basically, with this project, you solve two captchas, one a<br>
real captcha, and one a word that OCR couldn't get from some book from<br>the internet archive. After it reaches consensus on the second word it<br>concludes that must be the word and the book gets better.<br><br>Plus, it's got a dead sexy interface and wonderful plugins for lots of
<br>platforms, including MediaWiki. I suggest that we utilize the recaptcha<br>project for the wiki. Heck, I'll even install it if someone gives me<br>access rights to it.<br><br><a href="http://recaptcha.net/plugins/mediawiki/">
