There was some discussion at the end of June about inappropriate
training postings, particularly from CertFirst:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-www/2009-06/msg00241.php

and the www email thread agreed that training approval needs to be more
strict about style/advertising issues:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-www/2009-06/msg00251.php

However, I see some training events that do not follow that style
policy:

For example:

PostgreSQL DBA 8 Certification Hands-on Training (CPSD 8)
Date: 2009-07-27 - 2009-07-30
Location: St. Louis, MO, United States

Shouldn't those be removed? I am not singling out CertFirst, but theirs
seem to be the only non-qualified listings.
