Guidance
 This is a basic starting point
 Technical excellence is not being measured here
 The aim is to start the process of using Agile in a practical situation
 It is more important to have a site which can be built up than one which is functionally
or design rich
 Hosting and standards are outside the scope of this project
 The key AGILE message of “Do the minimum required, no more” applies here.
