</div>there is no verification of the email address submitted - I put an invalid one<br>
and it was accepted. Also I wonder if there is any protection against bots<br>
submitting talks - we *do* have people around who enjoy exposing such<br>
vulnerabilities ;-)<br>
<br>
and I just submitted a blank form - that went through also. Apparently there<br>
is no verification set up so far.<br></blockquote><div><br>Oh, so it was you who did it :)<br><br>Can we use simple verification like an email regex at least ?<br>I am not sure how tough this is, but seems easier with javascript<br>

<br>There is no need of a complicated image CAPTCHA for this.<br><br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
