The people can upload their Datafiles in a Gallery.

Advantages of Fed

  • A unique common set of PHP programs controls all Fed instances.
  • Each Fed instance has its own private look and feel and relational database as well as specific programs.

Several Feds can be federated

One interesting point is that several 'independant' Fed can be federated.

  • only the people are known everywhere
  • groups of people are defined independently in each Fed.

This can be easily done if the creation of new users is centralized on the unique FedLord. The information concerning the new user is then transferred to the local Fed especially the Pk which has to be the unique Id of the user.
