Thanks, Chris! It pains me that we have to do this, but... if it works, 
it works. (I hope we won't have to do this for any other FUDCon, though.)

I submitted https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1836 
and a first comment with my own results (CAPTCHA LOOP OF DOOM!) - if 
anyone has reports of both successful and unsuccessful (LOOP OF DOOM!) 
anonymous edits to the FUDCon namespace, drop a line there; so far anon 
editing works for Paul but doesn't work for me.

I don't have time to chase this down more until after FUDCon, nor do I 
guarantee I'll have the bandwidth to pick it up afterwards, but at least 
it's been noted and filed. I do think we might need a FUDCon FAD in 
early 2010 to fix things like this that will otherwise make life more 
difficult for future planners.

Nope, see
