Duplicate of issue #130, Taxonomy Authority Administration Page
One (of many) consideration here is that by bringing this into the portal, many
of the utilities that are available in a spreadsheet are lost (such as sorting,
formulas, searching, ease of adding new columns, auto-numbering, etc. etc.).

Some suggested ways of implementing this
1. On the portal directly, as a page available to administrators that links to
a database table
2. Continue to use the Google Doc spreadsheet, but access this via the docs
api, rather than through a separate csv table maintained on the server
3. Use EOL LifeDesks and related tools to maintain classification hierachies,
access these via the EOL api (http://www.eol.org/api)
4. Use Google Fusion Tables to maintain authority, share with TRB, edit and
access through the gft api. Fusion tables have advantages over Google docs: it
is a true database, allows vertical integration, designed for this case i.e.
domain specific knowledge

Closing; the team has their own method for managing the TA, this is just more
complication
