GSOC meet-up, day 2

Today was all about database schema for the beta-test (rather than alpha-test) version of Astrometry.net. The idea is to get web-submitted images to insert into a sensible data management system, and then from there to the calibration system and back to the user, with all parts (submissions, images, results, and so on) stored in normal form. By the end of the day, there was a functioning new web system that does a good chunk of what our existing alpha-test site does but with much better underlying technology.
