it seems like multi-domain support is beginning to be a very widely requested feature.

<http://source.ibiblio.org/trac/lyceum/ticket/356>

if anyone has any further ideas to add to that ticket, please do so.

I think this discussion needs to go beyond just supporting multiple
domains. Both WPMU and Lyceum fall flat on their faces compared to
Movable Type and b2evolution when it comes to being to being able to
simply put a blog anywhere on a server's filesystem, without being
constrained by having all blogs hanging off a single dir or using
subdomains. I described this problem in some detail here:

http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1867&replies=4

Movable Type and b2evolution can output any blog to any location on
the filesystem - any domain, any subdomain, any directory. Total
freedom for administrators running multi-purpose servers.

MT can do it because it spits out static HTML.

b2 can do it because it provides for a "stub" index you can drop into
any directory, which invokes the rest of the centralized b2
installation.

I strongly urge Lyceum developers to study and implement something
like the b2 model. It would put so many of these questions to rest
for once and for all. Doing so would also give Lyceum a nice leg
up on WPMU, which also fails this test miserably.
