This just takes wp-recaptcha and adds a few callbacks to make it work with Buddypress.
You only need this plugin if you use Buddypress with wordpress and want a recaptcha at the registration page.
The patch to do this on top of wp-recaptcha is VERY simple.
As google is the owner of wp-recaptcha, it is expected to be always up to date. And as the patch to add Buddypress is very simple, updating the wp-recaptcha plugin version this is based on is expected to be very simple.
With some luck, this plugin won't be needed in the future. A bug has been opened to Buddypress here [1] to fix it. And they plan to do something in the future, as that bug says. Also, a bug to meanwhile make wp-recaptcha work with BuddyPress has been openeded here [2] too.

Currently is based on wp-recaptcha 4.1.
You can see this plugin in a site using buddypress here [3]. If you go to "join", you will see the recaptcha there.
