Hi Moritz,

I understand, that it will be frustrating having to wait until somebody takes care about someones registration.
The official "capture" plugin status of "Weatherwax" (our dokuwiki version) is unknown:
https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:captcha
Maybe we can talk about this topic again, when a new version of the plugin is released.
I did peek at the hooking-code and I don't see any reason why it should not work with the current version of dokuwiki. And even if not, it shouldn't be too difficult to fix that.

Until there is no captcha officially available, I'd say let us stay with the current registration workflow. I normally am pretty quick with replies on requests, and if also Morty joins in with wiki administration, then we are already three.
This is a normal plugin - just like the other plugins installed - and it's unlikely there will ever be an "official" plugin. I assume the author just didn't bother to add the appropriate flag. And as I said: I did look at the code and it's a fail or work thing: Either the hooks work or the they don't. Also there are no comments about the plugin not working, something that normally happens pretty quickly. If you don't want official registration just say so, but please don't bring up meta-arguments....
