There seems to be a tension here between "I want everything on one site so I can search it" and "I want to restrict search to one site so that I don't search everything." Maybe the desired distinction is "I want everything *official* on one site so that I can search only that." Possibly then you'd want bugs.bzr.launchpad.net etc, and/or to allow people to put cnames to launchpad inside your own domain, as you can with eg the hosted wordpress service. -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
