In my view the original message gives the reason of the failure more clearly, 
where the proposed message hides this reason. Also what can be done about it 
would help. To me the proposed message does not make it clear that the old 
agenda has not been changed. 
In case this message is there to convey a message on very rare occasions, the 
original message, maybe with a little change (is it really the configuration 
for the agenda which is not usable or is it the data), has my preference.
