That is a good point.

If you are willing to help out with user management on the wiki, I  
think we can re-think the disabled user registration. The reason for  
disabling was that none of us has the time and focus to regularly  
check who is new and who is real.

The current version of dokuwiki also offers to mail targets: mails for  
every change committed to the wiki and mails for new registrations. So  
new registrations can be easily monitored via one's mail account.

@h1: what do you think?

Greets,
Mike
