      Well, to get the ball rolling I'll post some of the givens:

      - Registration/Authentication:
      The server must be able to create an account in the system, and authenticate a given account ID and password.

      - Security Validation:
      Role-based security, with the ability to validate a user's credentials. Obviously, we probably need to expound on this a bit more.

      - Personalization:
      Personalize the content, layout, etc... to your particular account.

        Authentication: HTTP-based? EzBoard saves the info in a cookie in plain-text(!) which is friggin' wide-open for sniffing.

        Validation: should we consider using capabilities?

        Personalization: this should include the intelligent filtering (twit filters, relevant content filters, etc)
