  • storing a reference to the object in a first repository in the portal framework, wherein the portal framework comprises at least one user system for implementing site administration, sharing objects between or among sites, and granting privileges associated with objects to users of the portal framework, wherein the reference to the object is for an object of a first site in the portal framework, wherein the first site comprises a first collection of objects stored in a database system of the portal framework, given an identity, and implemented to provide the first site, the object being stored in an original location in the database system in the portal framework, the first site having a domain name associated therewith, and wherein the object is an invokable software object;

    performing a first operation to store a duplicate of the reference to the object in a second repository associated with a second site in the portal framework, wherein the second site comprises a second collection of objects stored in the second repository, wherein the first operation is performed in accordance with a first privilege associated with a user of the first site to allow the user of the first site to share objects from the first site to the second site, the first privilege granted as defined by a permission for sharing the object; and

    providing access to the duplicate of the reference of the object in the second repository such that the object stored at the original location in the database system is available for use by the first site via the reference stored in the first repository or reuse by the second site via the duplicate of the reference stored in the second repository, thereby allowing the first site and the second site to share the object stored at the original location.
