 # To-do
 
-* consider running the /etc/systemd/system/conservancy-www-db.service on a timer so it doesn't require an Apache restart (and brief outage)
 * use `<detail>` elements for supporter page hidden sections, rather than complex jQuery - or consider Alpine.js
 * replace `internalNavigate` with inline flexbox layout
 * migrate to Django 4.2
