Is there a central location for the portal's "business logic"? Rules like, upvotes gain x points, downvotes take away y points, etc. etc.

Is this embedded into the code, or are there configuration files to control at least certain aspects of the system?

Those numbers are in the file forum/auth.py. They will be made accessible via the standard django admin interface - it's on todo list. Also there is a number of settings in the settings_local.py.

There are a few settings that I recommend not to change: EMAIL_VALIDATION, USE_EXTERNAL_LEGACY_LOGIN, USE_FB_CONNECT as they won't work as expected.
