I would like to see some schema diagrams of the current DB and proposed
normalization paths. Does ibiblio support mod_python? As for bug tracking,
I am not 100% sold on bugzilla. Another bug tracking project that I have
been looking at is Scarab @ http://scarab.tigris.org/

You are still welcome to work on arashi if you need temporary
bandwidth/space. I am back in Seattle this weekend. Will there be a cvs
store @ ibiblio, or...?
