GNIP 19 GeoNode Migrations
It is proposed to add django-south http://south.aeracode.org/ as a hard dependency in GeoNode to assist with database schema migrations.
Some initial work has been done by Eldarion on adding south and adding migrations for apps they are developing.

Implemented
Currently the GeoNode development team makes every effort to NOT make changes to the database schema unless they are absolutely necessary in order to avoid problems with Database Schema migration. There are several new pieces of functionality that are being developed which will require that we make database changes in order for them to work properly. It makes sense to address the issue of migrations now rather than continue trying to avoid it.
It is proposed to add django-south as a hard dependency and document its use going forward.

Do nothing. Continue avoiding database changes.
