My suggestion would be that a cobalt raq (3&4) pkg be made for Gallery so that admins of raq servers could do a quick install so that all of their users could have a working version of gallery on their site and so that an installation of gallery gets installed on every new site creation.

That way, when you create a new site, the user would have an instant gallery as a nice added feature to their hosting account. usersdomain.com/gallery

Whaddaya think?

That should be easy enough to do on your own.
Create a working 'template' Gallery install, then modify all the path information
to be easibly replaced by a regexp statement. Or you could possibly insert a bit
of php code to query system envrionment strings like $HOME and modify the paths
to append onto that.

Then just copy place the files into /etc/skell or whatever and have a one-time
script execute when they log in for the first time to do the regexp replacement
if necessary.
