>Hi guys,
>  These days I got a small task to identify Captcha characters.

	In other words, you have a task to make a robot that can break the
procedures put in place to prevent robots from posting to web sites...

	The whole purpose of the CAPTCHA scheme is that computer AI systems
aren't advanced enough to process them, whereas a human mind can almost do
it in the subconscious.


(as for picture attachments? comp.lang.python is a text newsgroup --
binaries aren't wanted in it; c.l.p is also gatewayed to a mailing list;
and that mailing list is gatewayed to gmane.comp.python.general where it is
made available as a news group (after spam filtering). Google Groups links
to c.l.p (and many of us wish it didn't)
