[13:33:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> athena / drewwills how common do you think it is for different fragments to have the same tab name?

[13:33:04 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I'm working on the aggregator

[13:33:23 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and realized that I might need to key on "fragment owner username + tab name" when aggrating tab info

[13:33:37 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> instead of just tab name

[13:33:55 CDT(-0500)] <athena> i don't really know - unfortunately i don't see too many client installations

[13:34:00 CDT(-0500)] <athena> certainly seems plausible though

[13:34:09 CDT(-0500)] <athena> multiple "home" tabs for different groups or whatever

[13:34:13 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah

[13:34:14 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ok

[13:34:18 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> easy enough to change

[13:34:24 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> this has been a huge chunk of work :/

[13:35:47 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> um, not really sure... i know some schools, hsitorically, have forked fragments for different groups rather than tuning the per-portlet render permissions

[13:35:55 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> but i think it's uncommon

[13:36:26 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> can either of you think of a downside of having the aggregation for a tab be grouped under "username + tabname" ?

[13:37:21 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> you mean "fragOwner + tabname?"

[13:37:27 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes

[13:37:29 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> sorry

[13:37:43 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and I'm grouping all personal tabs under a single placeholder name

[13:37:56 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> i think that's a great place to start

[13:38:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> sounds good

[13:38:16 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> we can look again after a year of working with that, i figure

[13:38:23 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
