Weave consists of two APIs: [http://hg.mozilla.org/services/sync-server Weave Server (sync-server)] and [http://hg.mozilla.org/services/reg-server/summary Weave Registration Server (reg-server)]. Sync is used for synchronizing data with the Weave server, while Reg-Server is used for setting up and managing user accounts. Both utilize an Apache front-end and a MySQL Storage backend.

For example, under the umbrella of one project title, one student may work on packaging a piece of software and another may work on documentation, or one may work on solving one bug and another on solving another bug, but two students must not work on the same bug or depend on the other students' work in order to be able to complete their own project. -->
