How to disable captcha in user sign up?

[Janne Paalijarvi]

Is there a way to (easily) disable the captcha functionality of Hudson
on user sign up? We are planning to use Hudson completely internally
in our company, and thus it makes no sense to show captcha pictures
(which can sometimes be so obscure that even the best steganographists
couldn't extract the correct letters ;) to users.

The plan is to let registered users have full control of jobs, and
grant view access to unregistered/anonymous users (mostly from
management & marketing). I just recently found out that functionality
for group control is not yet implemented when using Hudson's own user
database and matrix-based security. Is there a RFE on this in the
issue tracker (with a quick glance I couldn't find one) or should I
post one?

I agree that JCaptcha does a rather disappointing job. I can't pass it 3
out of 4 times myself.

But at the same time I hate adding options to Hudson.

Hmm...

Yeah, I can't find one either. Please file an RFE.
