+You can't handle stupidity
+------------------------------
+To be honest I would not like a system that tried to cater to Carol. She is an idiot and needs to learn more. If the answer to something is "you don't have to know what you are doing" then its not a good answer. DJango.. to use DJango, its not that you don't have to know a lot, its that you have less work to do. Everything is faster, not stupider.
+
+Really I'm uncomfortable catering to Alice either. If she can't read SQL, tell her not to use a database. I say start off with a system that would only cater to a know-it-all like Ben. If you can layer on ways to handle Alice/Carol later then fine do it.. but please please do not take any power or functionality away from Ben in the process. 
+
+Also, versioning of database structure should not be the job of DJango at all. If someone wants to version their DB structure they can bust out SVN, put Django's sql output commands to use and do it themselves. Django has no business versioning anything.
