Melange User stories need to be grouped to spot common themes, so that we avoid writing ‘the same code’ many times over in different disguises. A first try at grouping the user stories is done here.
Story 28, ‘creating a page’ is one story which leads in to many others. Once a new page is created by the host, it is read only, at least for most readers. The created page can include a table. The author chooses what table, what fields from that table and what formatting.
