+# Project Summary
+
+The purpose of this system is to aid the faculity & staff members involved in
+curricular proposals. The system will store and keep revisions of the files
+used in constructing a proposal. The system will also allow users to email
+their complete proposals to other users for review.
+
+# Project Goals
+
+The goals of this project are as follows:
+
+1) Streamline the process of creating, editing, and completing a proposal.
+2) Collect all required documents of a proposal into one central database.
+2) Provide version control for each proposal and its separate documents.
+
+# Product Features
+
+1) **System**: The system will be set up on a Linux server.
+2) **User accounts**: Users will log in with their Rowan email and a password.
+3) **Database**: A database to contain the locations of files, as well as relationships
+between files.
+ * Database will also store any other relevant information (version, author, etc).
+4) **Curricular Proposals**:
+ * Create / modify curricular proposals.
+ * Upload and store relevant 'parts' to a given proposal:
+ * Cover sheet
+ * Template
+ * Library form (optional)
+ * Consult letter(s)
+ * Approve / Deny curricular proposals.
+ * Browse through and search for existing proposals.
+ * Keep version numbers and revision notes of proposals.
+5) **Interface**: Interaction with system via a web front-end.
+6) **Email**: Composition and sending of emails via SMTP.
+
+# Limitations
+
+1) A proposal may have been updated by the time someone reviews the version sent to them.
+2) A document must be edited in a program such as Word. There is no integrated editor.
+
+# Stretch Goals
+
+1) Google Oauth integration for login.
+2) Integration with open source workflow creation tools.
+3) Automatically convert from multiple formats (.doc, .docx) to .pdf.
+4) Automatically notify relevant users of a proposal change.
+5) Auto generate cover sheets using database fields. (title, department, etc.).
+6) Integration with Rowan’s new curriculum system.
