jbe@0	2 Setup the database:
jbe@0	3 $ createdb liquid_feedback
jbe@0	4 $ psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -f core.sql liquid_feedback
jbe@0	5
jbe@0	6 Optionally insert demo data:

jbe@0	8
jbe@0	9 Compile lf_update binary:
jbe@0	10 $ make
jbe@0	11
jbe@0	12 If you wish, copy the created lf_update file to /usr/local/bin or a
jbe@0	13 similar directory. Ensure that "lf_update dbname=liquid_feedback"
jbe@0	14 is called regularly. On successful run, lf_update will not produce
jbe@0	15 any output and exit with code 0.

jbe@0	17 NOTE: When writing to the database, some INSERTs must be executed
jbe@0	18 within the same transaction, e.g. issues can't exist without
jbe@0	19 an initiative and vice versa.
