Introduction
============
FAPWeb is a simple web-based system for managing a web-site for a
demoparty (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoparty ), including
facilities for:

 - Web-pages with party information (compos) etc
 - Visitor registration
 - On-screen beamer slides for competitions and announcements
 - Submitting competition entries (currently no "user-submission" tho)
 - On-line voting

 - Etc .. with more features possibly coming as they are implemented.

The system has been used for two evolutions of Finnish Amiga Party,
aka "FAP", thus the somewhat amusing name for the software.


Requirements
============
The system has been written in PHP, and supports at least PostgreSQL
and probably MySQL PDO database backends, also SQLite3 is supported
for development purposes. However, SQLite3 should NOT BE USED for
the production website - it can not handle simultaneous access
very well at all.
