[dev] Sharing portal blocks

[Michael Rubinsky]

This is already possible, though not by sharing the blocks. Just make  
sure that the resource that you want to be available has the correct  
permissions.  To follow your example, make sure that the folder  
containing the bookmarks you want shared has the correct permissions  
for the people you want it shared with.  Then each user can add  
his/her own bookmark block to their portal - the shared bookmarks  
folder will appear in the choices of bookmarks to display in the  
block.  To take it a step further, you could provide the preconfigured  
block as a default preference by setting the appropriate values in the  
prefs.php file - though this is a bit more complicated if your not  
familiar with the structure of the blocks settings. If you would like  
help doing this, feel free to ask on list.
