Re: Local sites, private groups, or multiple review board instances?

2013-04-23 Thread Christian Hammond
Hi Steve,

Local sites aren't something that are deeply exposed. They're usable,
certainly, but my feeling is that you may really want two instances.

With Local Sites, you can basically have a path that goes to a specific
site, which certain people will have access to. However, in your case,
everything that already exists on the server will be independent of  a
Local Site, so you'd be in this weird setup where some things are at,
/r/123, and some are at /s/sitename/r/456.

We built Local Sites originally for RBCommons.com, our Review Board SaaS. I
don't know if anyone out there has used them for any other installations.
Possibly, and you could certainly try it, but there may be some gotchas.

Christian
