Thanks for this, Alan. This will be an important option for us to consider evolving the UGs outside the CG structure. So, when the new infrastructure is ready, it just becomes a governance discussion/decision and no longer a web app constraint. Also, I read your restructuring document. The wiki with localization support will help us implement the language/country portal communities much more effectively. Cool.
