[ckan-dev] 2 CKAN instances, 1 public and 1 private.

That sounds great. I will try and have a look at it, but did you make an entire new branch or could it be implemented by a single extension for use with stable releases of CKAN?

This sounds exactly like what we're doing for data.gc.ca<http://data.gc.ca>.

We didn't go the harvester route, instead we added a paster command that uses the activity stream and package_show actions to collect updates, and the package_create/update/delete actions to push those changes to our public site.
