Description

The certification request now gets emailed in this format:
--------------------------
VegBank Administrator: The following user has requested a certification change

---------------------------------------

It would be better to add a carriage return (or at least a consistent delimiter)
before each field label, ie:

Don F-L has noted that the end of the cert request is a bit tricky to read. It
currently looks like this:
nvcExpRegionA: US/CAN - NE

nvcExpVegA: 1
nvcExpFloristicsA: 1
nvcExpNVCA: 1
esaSponsorNameA: name1
esaSponsorEmailA: email1
esaSponsorNameB: name2
esaSponsorEmailB: email2
nvcExpRegionB: US/CAN - Midwest
nvcExpVegB: 1
nvcExpFloristicsB: 1
nvcExpNVCB: 1
nvcExpRegionC: US Alaska / N Canada
nvcExpVegC: 1
nvcExpFloristicsC: 1
nvcExpNVCC: 1

-----
better it would be if the regions were together and it looked like this:
Self assessment of user's knowledge (1=weak, 5=strong)
Region 1: RegionName
Vegetation : 1
Floristics : 3
US-NVC/IVC : 4
Region 2: Northwest US and SOUTHWEST Canada
Veg : 4
etc.

Much progress was made on this bug. The request was sent to ,
which is great. The format looked good. I think the request was only blocked
because the from address was not part of the panel subscribed list. This could
be changed to "" or the real address that is used for the "from"
could be added to the listserv from the administrator page. (which overrides the
fact that the address may not be totally legit?)

The Certification feature has been much improved. * new look and feel * requires user to be logged in; auto-populates party info * has nice form validation * email notifications are more readable

changed from components that are to be deleted to "misc" so that bugs don't get
deleted with component. Sorry for all the email.
