[Using Sakai] Site hierarchy or subsites

Hi,

Just a heads up that we have a project to extend the site hierarchy  
capability that is already in Sakai, and make several of the core  
Sakai tools 'hierarchy aware' so that content can be shared/propagated  
across sites. I'll come to the BOF and fill you in on where we are at,  
and see if we can focus our efforts.

You might like to also take a look at the hierarchy work by Charles  
Severance that's been in Sakai since before 2.5:

https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//reference/trunk/docs/architecture/sakai_pseudo_hierarchy.doc

or shorter url:

cheers,
Steve
