[Seaside] Seaside hosting questions - multiple sites, uploading squeak images and cgi

[Derek Brans]

Hi Avi,

I have access to my very own server.  I don't have seaside installed 
yet, but I wanted to know if it is possible to manage seaside sites just 
as I would other sites on my server.  Is it possible (within the limits 
of seaside) that a user could upload an image and start it up?  Does 
that mean you need one image running for every seaside site?  Is that 
scalable?
