Summary

Loco Django Development is a project aimed at defining, customizing and/or developing a Django-based CMS for LoCo teams to use as a website.

Release Note

Better integration with Launchpad.

Rationale

Python for LoCo sites!

Use Cases

Assumptions

Design

First flesh out the discussion/brainstorming section below, then come up with a design and implementation plan.

Implementation

This section should describe a plan of action (the "how") to implement the changes discussed. Could include subsections like:

UI Changes

Should cover changes required to the UI, or specific UI that is required to implement this

Code Changes

Code changes should include an overview of what needs to change, and in some cases even the specific details.

Test/Demo Plan

It's important that we are able to test new features, and demonstrate them to users. Use this section to describe a short plan that anybody can follow that demonstrates the feature is working. This can then be used during CD testing, and to show off after release.

This need not be added or completed until the specification is nearing beta.

Outstanding Issues

This should highlight any issues that should be addressed in further specifications, and not problems with the specification itself; since any specification with problems cannot be approved.

Feature Discussions

All are welcome to view the current specs for each of these and provide input. If you have any other ideas for features please add them as well.

Discussion
