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

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?
