Hi Ralf, Regarding the need for the URL to include the handle, my work-around was by way of URL rewriting (as explained in the case study). It's not ideal, but it does the trick - simply and cleanly.
The handle uniquely identifies a particular weblog. The trick would be, in the case of dedicated domains (1:1 relationship), to hide the handle from the outside world. Handles should only appear in HTTP requests where there is a 'one to many' relationship between domains and weblogs. I expect this is quite a deviation from the Roller 4 methodology, however, and may require rewriting of fair chunks of code. Perhaps Dave can elaborate on this point? The logic is simple enough.
