+Database
+========
+
+So you've checked out this git repo, and you've set up your virtualenv.
+Next you will want to setup your database.
+
+
+Local development db
+--------------------
+
+We use `south <http://south.aeracode.org/wiki/QuickStartGuide>`_ to manage our 
+database migrations.
+
+First run a standard django syncdb
+
+    ./manage.py syncdb
+
+And when asked, create a superuser to log into the django-admin.
+
+TODO: Do we need to convert_to_south, or do an initial ``schemamigration --fake``
