If you are talking about statusnet becoming part of this kind of idea?
http://dashes.com/anil/2009/07/the-pushbutton-web-realtime-becomes-
real.html
Its probably because I am new to this, but the relationship between
statusnet installs has always been very confusing for me... confusing
because of the existence of twitter mainly. Creating a hub/app
relationship (as per the diagram in the above post) with controls
enabled at the hub for pubsubbing your content would be clearer for
me. I guess laconi.ca has acted as the hub up till now? but that has
not been a very appealing model to me.
Perhaps contextualising the hubs also would help provide more useful
content?
Please correct me If I am talking crap here...

Sounds like a symbolic link?
I wonder if this is a common case? And I also wonder if the PuSH
model would be better here — where you might set up a series of
listeners that just repost your content (as copies of the original)?
I'm curious if you goal is to be able to publish/create content
within both contexts or — to use the language of yore — if you'd
rather setup up master/slave relationship?
Finally, is this a common problem or just something that you'd like
to have? Where might this situation show up in the wild? And when
it does, would people want to copy ALL their posts, or just some?
(Which I think could be a more interesting use case...)

Here's an idea.
If I own these two accounts:
http://identi.ca/tobyink
http://example.com/tobyink
Then I should be able to join them together. To join them together
would be like a subscription, but would be bi-directional and
require confirmation from both ends.
Once joined, notices from <http://example.com/tobyink> would not
just appear in the notice stream at <http://identi.ca/tobyink/all>
but also in the notice stream at <http://identi.ca/tobyink>. People
who subscribed to <http://identi.ca/tobyink> would also see notices
from <http://example.com/tobyink>. (And vice versa of course.)
This makes moving accounts easy - you just join your new account to
your old account, then abandon the old one. Subscribers don't need
to unsubscribe from the old account and subscribe to the new one.
(Though the person moving accounts will need to re-add to all their
old subscriptions to their new account.)
Just an idea. What do others think?
