Hi, I've been trying to create an account on https://bugs.centos.org. I'm blind, but all I find is a visual captcha. From inspection of the HTML source for the signup page, it appears that there might be an audio captcha implemented in flash, but I don't have flash on any of my devices.
I went and grabbed a copy of the mantisbt source code, to get an idea of what it was doing and to determine whether I had any other options. Mantis uses a bundled third-party library to generate those captchas. In the source tree, it's vendor/dapphp/securimage.
In the latest version, at least, that library will generate an HTML 5 <audio> tag by default, with a fallback to flash. The <audio> would work just fine for me.
I don't know what version of Mantis BT bugs.centos.org is running, and that's why I'm writing here. Is there any chance of an upgrade / patch to fix my issue?
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Any CentOS developers with admin access to mantis should be able to create a new account for you. Send:
username real name email address
to Fabian Arrotin arrfab@centos.org (for example). You will then receive an email notification that would let you set up a new password.
Hope this helps,

Yes, that helps. I now have an account. Thank you.
