I don't want to stifle discussion on architectural issues, but this  
scares me a bit. If such a migration would compete for the same  
resources as fixing front-end issues like those raised by Christopher  
Gutteridge last week, then please please please make some progress on  
the front-end first. It's the front-end that makes or breaks CKAN, not  
the back-end.

Best,
Richard
