[development] RE : Advice on module writing

[fgm]

You should probably avoid table sharing, and don't need it if you use domain or OG to partition content.

If you want really separate sites, use a SSO solution. Since all your sites are under the same domain like example.org, you could use the simple and rather efficient bakery module.

Objet : [development] Advice on module writing

I've had a look at the domain modules and organic groups and neither
seems to do what I want.

What I want is to create a domain/site structure like this:
widgiemootha.example.org,
wiluna.example.org,
witchcliffe.example.org
wagin.example.org
wyalkatchem.example.org
www.example.org
birdiya.example.com


Membership between all sites will be shared, but individuals might not
actually be members of any particular site.

Drupal's multisite allows sharing tables and so membership. As far as it
goes, that is fine.

Content associated with a site will only be visible at that site.

A site's content at some paths, such as /About will override all others
at that path.

A site with nothing at /About _might_ inherit from birdiya, the boss
site. On the other hand, /News might merge news from friends.

Content shared with other sites will be visible at other sites.
Aggegator is similar in content, but sharing will be explicit.

One idea I have is to extend the node to have two more fields: owning
site-id, and sharing attributes.

I tried the domain modules, but when I was associated with two sites I
got two /About menu items, and the implementation shared users behaved a
little oddly: I want to switch back and forth between sites, maybe by
choosing them from a list of links, and not to have any problems with
sessions management or with access.

The first question is, is it in order to modify the node table? I've
googled and googled and not found an answer to that question.
