+Content Management
+==================
+
+The content management system allows organizers to create pages and page
+sections for a conference.  You may want to have an entire page about a job
+fair, or may only want to have an editable section at the top of a tutorial
+schedule with some instructions for all of the tutorial attendees.
+
+CMS App
+-------
+
+The ``cms`` app provides functionality for creating wiki pages. These pages can
+be created using the django admin. The django admin form has controls for
+specifying:
+
+* title
+* markup content
+* url path
+* tags
+* public or draft mode
+* publication date
+
+Page content and title can also be edited directly at the url. The ``cms`` app
+uses the `django-reversion <http://django-reversion.readthedocs.org>`_ package,
+thus content is version controlled.
+
+Boxes App
+---------
+
+The ``boxes`` app allows for sections of a page to be edited like a wiki. To use this in a template
+use the ``boxes_tags`` and specify a box section of a page using the ``boxes`` tag:
+
+.. code-block:: django
+
+    {% load boxes_tags %}
+    {% boxes "intro_section" %}
+
+This template will render an editable content box. When a staff user visits the
+page,  they will see an ``Edit this content`` button. The ``boxes`` app also uses the
+``django-reversion`` package.
