Priya,

Sorry, you can add the line 

ORGANIZATION=whatever

to the send-pr.conf file, just like the SUBMITTER I mentioned below.  Also,
you can take a look in the actual send-pr script (line 41 of 4.0 beta 2) 
which shows the default organization being set.  Later below in that same
file, it shows the organization being possibly set by other means.  

Mike
