 Doodle clone. 100% duplication of Doodle functionality. Modifications to improve usability as necessary.
 
+### Pitfalls to avoid
+
 What do people not like about Doodle?
 
 * Too much clicking
+ * We can deal with this by collapsing the three-page wizard Doodle has into a single page. Be careful not to sacrifice too much simplicity for such a setup.
 * No obvious "I can, but would rather not"
+ * Alleviated also by the above; this might want to be the default poll setup.
 
 ### What to do?

 * <del>Make sure the default scaffolding works on Scripts (this includes running TurboGears as CGI). Any work done here should be considered for a TurboGears auto-installer, the equivalent of tgsetup) (**ezyang**)</del>
 * <del>Write a .gitignore file for generated/not versionable items</del>
 * Get friendly URLs working
-* Learn TurboGear's templating interface (would like XSLT, but I don't think anyone else will like that)
+* Learn Kid (TurboGear's default templating interface)
 * <del>Setup a zephyrbot that watches the repository</del>
+* Learn [Widgets](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Widgets) (we'll be using them for all of the forms in this website)
+* Polish up and get SSL authentication working with TurboGears identity
 
 ### Architecture
 
-* Python and Turbogears
-* Git repository
-* Use 15 minute timeslices to simplify interface (?)
