[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Configuring applied penalties and messages

[Thomas Berezansky]

Step 1 you can do from the staff client, there should be a server  
admin menu item for that. Step 2 I don't know of any way to do from  
the staff client outside of removing and re-creating every single  
staff penalty manually.
