Thanks. Perhaps some work on CAPTCHA could happen via a Project grant once there is a concrete proposal that's agreeable to the participants and WMF? Pinging Marti to ask about the possibility.

Hi, just checking to see if CAPTCHA improvements are likely anytime in

near future. I notice that https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/225/ shows nothing under "Awaiting code review". Is anyone working on this?
To the best of my knowledge, nobody is working on the CAPTCHA system right now.
If not, what kind of nudge would be necessary to get some resources devoted to CAPTCHA improvements?
The truthful but (presumably) unsatisfying answer is that you'd have to convince someone responsible for planning their team's work that working on the CAPTCHA is more important than what they had planned. That does not seem likely to happen right now.
