  * An alternate solution based on mod_security: [http://madwifi.org/wiki/FightingTracSpam Fighting Trac Spam].
 
+== About the "Captcha" variant ==
+
+There's a variant of the plugin developed by Alec Thomas, which implements CAPTCHA-style "human" verification, see [source:sandbox/spam-filter-captcha spam-filter-captcha].
+
+Note that you need to add the following to your [TracIni trac.ini]:
+{{{
+[spam-filter]
+...
+reject_handler = CaptchaSystem
+}}}
+
+It seems to work fine (Trac 0.11, r6785), at least the "expression" style (haven't yet tried the "image" one). [[br]]--cboos

-... which is precisely what the [source:sandbox/spam-filter-captcha spam-filter-captcha] variant of the plugin does (but I haven't tried myself, so I can't comment further - your take).
