Re: Branded "virtual Launchpads"

 

Hi Luke.

I'll need to get more details for you, or try to arrange someone else to do that for you, but the bug report to use to track this feature is https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bug/392266 .

Hi,

Sugar Labs has been looking at migrating to Launchpad for a while now, and recently did a test bug import into a EC2 instance. It looked great!

However, our organization is fairly cautious about branding. We'd like to give Launchpad services the appearance of integration with the rest of our site, via the route of a branded domain name. (a la "dev.sugarlabs.org " or "bugs.sugarlabs.org") As we're attempting to make Launchpad part of the user-facing portal to ask questions and get answers, we don't want users to easily "get lost" in the rest of Launchpad, and wish to enable them to easily find their way back to our site. This is essentially a show-stopper for us at this time.

We realize that this is not currently on the Launchpad roadmap, and we're wondering how difficult this would be to implement, whether massive amounts of code would need to be refactored, etc. We also understand that there would be security implications in this approach (ie, what if SugarLabs.org went rouge and started stealing user cookies), as well as technical issues (multi-domain SSL on a single host would be difficult).

What do you all think?

Thanks,
Luke Faraone
