Hi Vincent,
I haven't poked around with dispatcher in a long time and don't
remember the preferred way of modifying contracts, but it looks like
your on the right track with the content-title contract.  That
contract appears to output a title in two locations (the two
forrest:part elements), you're happy with one, but not the other.

It's been a while, so this may not be correct, but you might try...

o) Overriding the content-title contract in your local project,
removing the undesired output part.
o) Finding the right contract to override to output the title in a new
location (override that contract, find the right params to pass in,
etc.)

If I've gone wildly astray, hopefully Thorsten will come in and save you:)
