+------
+
+For returning contributors, we have noticed the following issues (if you can help fix them, we will be very grateful!):
+
+1. Docker doesn't know when we add a new Python dependency, `docker-compose build` is needed.
+2. DB schema changes are not applied automatically, the easiest way to deal with that is to delete the entire environment from the Docker GUI and do `docker-compose up`. Also wait five minutes for a "sneed" commit from Aevann meaning that the sql file was regenerated.
+3. Old authorization cookies from the previous instance cause a weird 404 error, clear cookies for localhost to fix.
