[Moin-user] disabling self-registration

[andy baxter]

Hello,

Is there an easy way to set up moinmoin so that new users have to email 
me to get a login rather than register themselves? I've set up a moin 
wiki mainly for use as a quick and easy web publishing tool for stuff 
I've written myself, and I'm thinking that this would be an easy way to 
prevent it getting spammed while still allowing people I know or meet on 
the net to make comments if they ask me first.

The only way I can think of doing it is to modify or delete the file
.../lib/python2.5/site-packages/MoinMoin/action/newaccount.py

But this seems a bit awkward and tricky so it would be good if there 
were an easier way.

Thanks,

andy
