For a

Schema .Pretty screenshot attached.
I need to figure out the group situation still and hope to solidify
the
schema so that development against it may commence. I have already
tested and verified apache authentication against it using
mod_authnz_ldap.
Just noticed that the project_group.prerequisite_id field is not
carried over to the new schema, and the page didn't sound like there
was a general understanding of why the field is there.
It's there to allow you to specify that anyone who joins a group must
be in another group first. Most of the time it is used to enforce CLA
compliance for a particular group, by setting cla_done as a
prerequisite for any groups that give access that needs the CLA (e.g.
all the cvs* groups).
AFAIK, enforcing CLA compliance is a must for the future, and if
we're going to implement a solution for that, it might as well be
generic (instead of just a 'needs_cla' field in the DB, for example).
