More requirements:

1. Support for content bundles
2. Locking to specific versions (maybe already possible with
collections -- not sure) rather than a collection always including the
latest
3. Reproducibility in low-connectivity deployments, or even for cases
such as paraguay where connectivity is good but going to ASLO will
really be sloooow and it's much more desirable to set up some simple
infrastructure to run it within the school. i.e. that simple
infrastructure needs to be developed and good documentation needs to
be written.

(easiest approach for #3: support OLPC activity microformat. clean,
simple format, well documented, designed for low connectivity
situations, simple infrastructure is already developed and has been
replicated around the world.)
