Hi Stephanie,

that's what I did to replace default Main.WebHome with another space of 
my choice:

in xwiki.cfg set
xwiki.defaultweb=MySpace

then go to your skin directory. If its colibri the path should be 
something like
/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/xwiki-shept/skins/colibri
(of course a better solution is to copy colibri to another skin dir and 
use the copy -
the process is documented somewhere in the xwiki docs)

In the *.vm's there are unfortunately several hardcoded references to 
'Main.WebHome' that need to be replaced.
I found them with a
grep Main.WebHome *
from a linux command line

In my XEM 2.633065 installation there where 3 occurrences in 2 files:
global.vm and menuview.vm
and replaced all occurrences 'Main.WebHome' with 'MySpace.WebHome'

et voila - your wiki will come up with MySpace and you still have access 
to the Main space - but only if you point an explicit url to it.
you can see it public at http://shept.org

I think that's all there is to it.

enjoy

Andreas
