Not easily, no. There is an export / import capability, but fields will may be different between the two systems. Generally, it's probably not a good idea. Plus, there's a question of content ownership. Are you talking about a "donation" of code, and including some sort of extract in the content of what's being donated? Also, this raises a bit of a concern in my mind. We really don't want lots of development outside the project, than then gets "donated". Can you be more specific about what you are talking about here? -chip
