+# You can customize the captcha engine by providing a Captcha class with this
+# interface:
+# Constructor:
+#      Captcha(article) -> constructor, takes an article[1] as argument
+# Attributes:
+#      puzzle -> a string with the puzzle the user must solve to prove he is
+#                not a bot (can be raw HTML)
+#      help -> a string with extra instructions, shown only when the user
+#              failed to solve the puzzle
+# Methods:
+#      validate(form_data) -> based on the form data[2],  returns True if
+#                             the user has solved the puzzle uccessfully
