adding a new text field to question
I am planning to add a new (optional) text field (with a single line textbox and at most 200 characters) to "the question" in askbot code. Please point me to files that need to be changed and other required steps (like database migration etc.,).

To make things simpler, create a model related to thread via foreign key and maintain it in the separate app, and have migrations for that app separately. That way it will be much easier to maintain your version and avoid clashes in the migrations.
The question model is askbot.models.Thread. There is also model askbot.model.Post, which contains all comment, answer and question bodies. Thread holds the question title, tags and some more things.
