That's fine. One of the questions I've been pondering is if the users who would use file sharing might also be a casual collaborator (CC) target user.
i think there will be some crossover, but probably not much.
1. Opposed to having login checkboxes, use separate subdomains for capabilites. This is the model followed by a number of web apps, for example calendar.google.com, mail.yahoo.com. A user may login to any google of google's 'properties' such as gcal or gmail, enter the subdomian url of another property and preserve their login status.
sub-domains is not something we can mandate as software providers. using a technique like that is a choice of the deployer, not the software vendor. that said, i have another idea. we could separate out the repository browsing ui into a separate webapp, integrated into snarf, and separately downloadable as a war file from the core cosmo war file. heck, we could even do this with the admin and cc uis as well and have a completely ui-free core cosmo webapp, which i think would make jared philosophically and metaphysically happy ;) this would let administrators mix and match whatever uis they want, and it would give deployers a little more freedom with proxying and sub-domains and so forth. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "Design" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/design
