RE: [registrars] Registrars constituency website rehaul

Hi tim,

Let me confirm and clarify. The process is a custom development project and
as any other project would allow us to move the work over to another person
or firm at anytime for further development. We would have full rights to the
software. However I do not know whether we would have the right to publish
the code out in the open for anyone and everyone to use. That is the only
aspect I will have to ascertain tomorrow

The rest is cool :)
