taken from the above link:
"
Functionality
* Base Functionality - domain knowledge not neccessary (Product
encapsulates).
* Advanced Functionality - domain knowledge partly necessary.
* Expert Functionality - domain knowledge neccessary, partly
programming skills.
* Analyst Functionality - domain knowledge and analytic /
abstraction / programming skills necessary.

should be valid for those domains, too.

django-admin.py startproject eval newcomer-project
django-admin.py startproject eval # uses standard-project
