In a Glasnost site, everything is an object, an abstraction of a real world object. For instance :

• An article is an object with a title, some content, one or more authors, a creation date, ...
• An election is an object with a subject, candidates, voters, a polling method, ...
• A rubric is an object which can contain articles, or other rubrics  [1].
• A person is an object which represents a real person. For instance the author of an article.
• A file may be a file which one may download from the site, or an image to be displayed in the content of an article.
