 Users have '''quotas''' how resources are allocated to their jobs.

+Users submit jobs using forms on the project web site.
+These forms are application-specific; you must develop them yourself.
+Two examples are included in the BOINC distribution:

+TODO: the above are full of application-specific complexity;
+provide a minimal/generic example.

+The job-submission scripts use [foo local PHP interfaces] to
+authenticate users and to create jobs and batches.
+
+Input files can be handled in any of several ways:
+
+ * Uploading them (from the submitter's computer) as part of the submission form.
+   The submission script would then [xxx stage them].
+ * Using the [SubmitSandbox user file sandbox] mechanism.
+ * Serving them from a remote server.

+In such systems, users submit jobs using forms on a web site
+other than the project web site.

+The scripts implementing these forms would use
