Hi,

If you use CGI::Carp with fatalsToBrowser in your Perl CGI tools, please
remember that by default, the error message will instruct users to
contact ts-admins if your tool breaks.  You need to change the error,
like this:

	use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser set_message);
	set_message("Please mail jsmith at toolserver.org about this problem.");

Otherwise, ts-admins receives complaints about broken tools which we
don't care about and cannot fix.

	- river.
