Noam-

- Update from Noam on code - problem in Django with interdependencies between fields (i.e. response format determines available decision rules); Noam is researching, will look for Django developer community to help - affects other models as well
- Change to proposal okay - write-ins as collection of propositions
Project
- Recursive Project model is implemented and in repo
- Project creator needs to be implemented based on Jimmy's and Todd's design, but with recursive projects - support subprojects, adding projects to other projects etc.; incorporate new code from Mike for viewing Collections, when ready
- Possibly make two different templates for when the recursive project doesn't contain anything, and when it does, to make the singular recursive project feel like a task (just a suggestion).
Moving issues to the Project tool
- wait until UI is ready and tool is reviewed
