My motivations for doing this were:
	1) to gain experience with Seaside
	2) to create a public-facing web site to show Seaside in action
	3) to help the IRTC community

Doing it in .NET would defeat the first two points.  What I'm finding is 
that Seaside works really well for the parts of the application that are 
only accessible once you log in.  For this application, I want all the 
pages bookmarkable and Google-indexable.  This means you need REST-ful 
URLs which isn't the natural mode for Seaside to work in.  This slowed 
me down quite a bit while I figured that out.

That part works now and I'm working on some admin functions which don't 
require bookmarkable URLs and the development is much easier.
