Web deployment policies

2016-03-25T03:15:40Z

Richard:

* Server code should not be able to write to itself
** one user for webserver (fastcgi?) to run as, one for deployment
** data stored by the webserver (or other server) goes in /var/lib/ (probably /var/lib/sitedata/<sitename>)
* config should live under /etc/, and not in the docroot/code
* Use SSL/TLS wherever possible
* Use salted good hashes for passwords
