Hello All,
the plan will be:
1) captcha range will be added to this [1] file
2) by default it will be 'A'-'Z'
If 'A'-'Z' is not appropriate for your language, please send me
the range specific to your language
NOTE: this should be the range i.e. unicode code for first letter
should be less than code for the second one
codes can be checked for ex. here http://www.unicode.org/charts/
Thanks in advance

Yes, what I want is that limiting it to only capital letters
and informing the user accordingly is a fantastic idea.

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?

I just realized that I should offer this
clarification for some of our friends, to avoid any
misunderstandings:
"terrific" means "wonderful"
"terrific" does NOT mean "terrible"!
English is a fun language.

Would it help if Capital letters will be used
instead of small ones?
And maybe there will be text like: Captcha
consist of English letters 'A' - 'Z' only ....

Dear Friends,
My users, some of whom use non-Latin
alfabets, have no problem with using
Latin letters in the captcha.
My current problem with the captcha,
shared by my users is that the characters
are often hard to recognize. Capital I
vesus small l. Or capital I verus ]. Or
m versus n. Or g versus q. Often, the
letters are sufficiently deformed so as
to be difficult not only to Robot, but
also to Robert and other humans to
distinguish. As a result, several
captchas are often needed till a person
can get it.
Granted, it is a terrific tool for
teaching folks how to have patience,
highly recommended. But sometimes, folks
are under the time pressure to enter the
meeting (now, why do they try to connect
only in the very last minute, that's a
separate question)...
Thank you.
Robert

the bad news: there seems to be no

the ugly news: there are languages
without alphabet ....
start and end character can be
manually specified here
https://github.com/apache/openmeetings/blob/master/openmeetings-web/src/main/webapp/languages/languages.xml
Another option might be to made this
range _optional_
so 'a' - 'z' will be used if else is
not specified ....
Not sure is someone will bother to
specify different range ...
but I'm not sure how good is this
idea :(((
@Robert what kind of difficulties
your user have with the captcha?
