We finally published our Portal Managed Desktop Modules tool to add on to your DNN portal site.  You can manage who sees what modules from a control panel that is installed on the Host tab.  Check it out on SnowCovered or the DNN marketplace.

Would you want to provide the information on how to get it for those who were interested?

any chance any of this could be incorporated into the open source product design?  just curious.  it's just something that sooner or later I would have thought would be fundamental to the product.  besides the financial aspect, unless it truly is a site specific requirement, there's comfort in having such functionality supported by the base product.
