That's sad. However, the current english description is not descriptive
enough. I've no idea of translations in italien, etc...
The change consists of putting "Did" at the start - a keyword for
question sentence - and removing the "Please contact[...]!" from the
headline.
IMHO, I could live with having changed the default (english) message only.
Marcus.
