I guess one of the big questions is how do we handle content?

Once the design is in place, I can start working on the backend of things, and it's no problem to have user-defined content. However, there are several ways of doing this, such as:

Anybody can upload content but 'moderators' are responsible for approving (and thereby, allowing to be posted) the content

or

Anybody can upload content to any section and there are no checks done (this is the 'easiest' way to go, but there are always some party crashers who just like to cause trouble)

or

Anybody can upload content, but they have to register first and be logged in. No approval / moderators are needed for content to appear, but moderators can disable content if needed (for whatever reason...copyright violation, inappropriate content, etc.)

Those are probably the three most common scenarios.

Thoughts?
