This document concerns only the latest Helios v3.1 code, last updated on June 8th, 2011.
As of v3 beta (due in July 2010), Helios is no longer based on Google App Engine, but instead on a standard Django/Python + PostgreSQL stack. This document explains how to install Helios on a standard Linux machine, preferably Ubuntu 10.04.

- Ubuntu Linux 10.04 (for these instructions, should be adaptable to other Linux distributions.)
- PostgreSQL 8.3+ (may work with other databases, uses Django modeling, but not tested yet.)
