That's a public facing install, so I cannot pass out the login/password
info on that one.


However, I have some queries regarding some workflows (and I found it best

During installation, when you run the "python manage.py syncdb" it will ask
for an admin account. This account will give you a full admin backend on
Pathagar. From that backend, you can set up users with limited role, or
with superuser privileges.

A user is more like a curator, or a maintainer who can tag, untag, clean up
descriptions, etc.

If you are using the VM (See http://www.olpcsf.org/pathagar) you can log
into the interface using login bsadmin and password bs::admin (#9 on that
page).
