  • Modification capabilities similar to what we have now, but with as much as possible subject to an approval workflow.
  • Full edit access restricted by user permissions for anything that is not yet under an approval workflow.
• To support the existing data and schema, with only the following minimal modifications:
  • Drop unused columns.
  • Migrate user management to Django's authorization framework.
• To lay the groundwork for a new look-and-feel (including navigation and search capabilities) of the site which will support our growth into the new schema.
• To ship with a test suite that will support rapid but reliable future growth.
