Who is 'we'?

<<may I ask why you are building a separate site and not 'just a group' on 
myexperiment.com>>

I'm aiming to customise the codebase (in relatively small ways): a) to add some 
facilities astronomers would be more likely to use; b) to add an interface to 
the SKUA project infrastructure (the main reason for the work I'm doing) in 
order to test that technology. What we do may turn out to be things 
myExperiment will later want to incorporate.

We're trying to build a community of researchers in the domain of
those studying free and open source software development, so without
meaning to criticize your efforts, may I ask why you are building a
separate site and not 'just a group' on myexperiment.com?  Do you need
customizations etc?

The question of federation of open-source-but-hosted web apps is a
broad one; I wondered if the myexperiment crowd had any guidance on
questions like these.  For example federated search would relieve some
of the difficulties of separated sites...
