Hi, I would like to change the text from "Ship It" to something else because "Ship It" is sometimes confusing to users.  I don't want to change it for all pages but just the page in my description below.
Thanks!

My installation is centos 7, python 2.7.5, reviewboard 3.0.15
Reviewboard installation package is at: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/reviewboard


In My Dashboard I click on a review request and then the Review button and the page below is displayed. Where do I find this page in the site-packages/reviewboard directory with the "Ship It" text?

Review for: Ron: [Bob] testing

Hi Ron,

There’s no setting or anything to change this text. You’d have to patch the code itself, which I don’t recommend. Changing it would just add to confusion, as the terminology is used in various places in the UI, e-mails, command line tools, API, webhooks, and documentation. “Ship It” is also a pretty common industry phrase.

Developers are smart people. I think it’s best to give them time to learn the terminology. They’ll get used to it in the context of the product.
