I'm not sure that's possible primarily because the project was
non-trivial. We spent 1 year, $ 250K and had developers in 5 countries
develop the www.townspeak.com portal.
Granted, we've added other things like www-based email, calendars,
etc., but the MV portion itself was quite a challenge. From simple things
like making MV work with Oracle8 to complex things like online/offline
product management.
You're welcome to test drive the solution at www.townspeak.com.
Designers and webmasters are invited to host thier client sites
@ Townspeak.com and enjoy the freedom of serving clients without
ripping your hair out. We've even simplified that by making the
authentication system distributed - single logon for webmaster/designer
so that he/she can manage all the sites en masse, and a per store login
that allows you to give your clients access to each store only.
The technology is also available under license.
MV is GPL and that stays as it. The code developed for/with
Oracle8, etc. is definitely not GPL and that falls under our license.
