Well, the info text is just a label, site admin can re-translate/customize it (upgrade might be an issue here ...)
Additionally we might add `captchaStartLetter` `captchaEndLetter` to every language here https://github.com/apache/openmeetings/blob/master/openmeetings-web/src/main/webapp/languages/languages.xml with default of 'A'-'Z' for all languages site admin can change this (upgrade will still be an issue ...) WDYT?
