I spoke to some people at the Internet Archive about the ReCaptcha
situation, and learned something interesting.
Apparently, although IA provided a large dataset to ReCaptcha, they never
got any data back, and then after the Google acquisition, they got shut out
completely.
I highly recommend we get IA involved if at all possible - it sounds like
they have a data set they could provide us (identical to the one they
provided ReCaptcha), or at least know exactly how to generate one. We
could, you know, ACTUALLY provide them with the results and be good open
content citizens.

We could also decorate our captcha with

Hah, use it for editor recruitment!
That was the point, indeed.
