Hum, I don't see what he said in this thread. Or was it somewhere else?

You mean have fedoramagazine.org and a fedoracouncil.org blogs in the
same openshift instance? I think so, but I have not tried it. 

Note that for fedoramagazine, we proxy those requests. They hit our
proxy setup (and are cached) and then go to the wordpress site on the
backend. This was orig setup because it was the only way we could do
ssl / https for it. (which there is actually no need for really
anymore).

ok. Will see about trying to gather people on the infra list or have a
one off meeting or something.
