Description (last modified by )
A minor problem but the combination of messages on the registration form (The email address is required for Trac to send you a verification token.) and on successful registration (Registration has been finished successfully. You may login as user testuser now.) seem to lead people to believe that they should wait for an email rather than login as instructed to trigger the email.
It might be a bit clumsy to append a message to the existing message, so a new msgid might be better. Perhaps something like
Your username has been successfully registered but your account still requires activation. Please login as user %(user)s, and follow the instructions.
or something like that?
Hm, why not? I can imagine better wording helps some users, sure.
But I have to replay the procedure to see how it goes.
Side note: Using
code wiki markup
for long-running lines isn't a good idea. I've edited your description for you to make it look nicer.
