I don't understand - what I read below is actually splitting by service
types rather than users, no?

Multiple domains can relatively easy be hosted on same machine.
Multiple services on a single domain name is usually tricky to scale
well: How to optimize for PHP (EZ Publish) *and* Python (MoinMoin wiki)
*and* java/perl/ruby/whatever (blogger, LMS, SVN frontends, whatever)
on the same machine?

Globalisation is important, but localisation is too: It is important for
local groups to blossom, and not all speak english fluently.
It should not be a requirement for a school administrator to speak
english fluently in order to share knowledge and team spirit with
others.
