  * interaction with multi-domain setups.
   * is a space a domain?
   * or are they seperate things?
   * are users contained in a space, or do users span multiple spaces? (seems more useful for a user to be able to access multiple spaces)

+I couple thoughts:
+
+* We have one client that essentially needed a different set of templates for each domain, but they needed to otherwise work (largely) the same.  Giapeto needed different content.
+* On more than one occassion, we've had people request that we hack per-domain address books.  With LDAP, we can plug in the domain as a key, with SQL, we fudge the table name or patch the driver to exclude based on auth domain.
+
+I'm thinking out loud, er, on paper, er, WikiThinking or something, but there are two disjoint concepts here, it seems.  First, what constitutes a "use domain" (which could be multiple DNS domains--we frequently have people register different spellings or abbreviations of their business name), or perhaps one class of user at one domain, e.g. "content managers" versus "public" versus "administrators"), and second what constitutes an "application set" -- and here we're thinking about several application instances.  For example, internal and external wikis, or giapeto content for public site, or file manager for FTP site.
+
+Hmm.  I like this, because then we remove multiple address book support from Turba (we use multiple Turbas) and multiple VFS support from Gollem, etc.
+
+Okay.  This has been an attempt at thinking.  Take whatever is useful and DeleteWhenCooked. --Jason
