- what is Rich's timeline?
- 3 months (est)
- his resources are fully engaged right now

- data model may change
- business requirements may change
- how flexible is Rich? How long would resources be available for us as we learn things and as things change? thats why we will play in dev to define
- can this be agile? drupal will not allow
- design from inside out
- catalog has defined their content types - share with Portfolio
