4. Who is going to use it and how? Primarily Cure and music fans. It is intended to be a fan site for simple informational purposes only. Who should be involved in the selection process? Me!

5. How will access and intellectual property rights be managed? At this point, I’m treating this as a learning experience and class project, and thus, not making it truly public.

If permission is granted all appropriate credits, disclaimers, and copyrights would be noted for each item.

It is designed to be a simple project that doesn’t rely on special functionalities beyond the capabilities of Omeka and its plugins (such as simple pages and comments).
