[ckan-dev] Organization hierarchy

Hi Lucia,

For example if a children organization moves to other parent, one should

Yes this should probably happen, but depending on how important it is to
have this change reflected right away, you could also defer that, and
simply run the paster command "search-index rebuild" daily (or hourly) and
have it updated then.
Just a thought, maybe a "proper" implementation is the better solution.

In order to do that, you'll need to implement the IRoutes interface (
http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/extensions/plugin-interfaces.html#ckan.plugins.interfaces.IRoutes)
and change the way the organization routes are handled by CKAN.

I hope it'll work I'm happy to help.
