I'm definitely willing to try and make everyones suggested changes, but I ask
that you guys please make note of them in this ticket:

    https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/bodhi/ticket/152

The SHA1SUMs will be going away pretty soon, which should clean up the
notifications a bit.  I'm extremely busy at the moment, but if you add
your suggestions or patches to the above ticket and I'll try and get to
them as soon as I can.

Thanks,
