Sure.

Not a problem. You can use the normal perl mechanism for installing
modules to a local directory (e.g. 'perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/lib').
And then use a local directory for your OpenInteract base installation
(e.g., 'oi_manage install --base_dir=~/OpenInteract'). You should then
be able to create local sites to your heart's content, as long as
Apache can put your local library directory (~/lib) in its @INC. (A
'<Perl>use lib qw( /home/tompoe/lib )</Perl>' section would likely do
the trick.)
Note that OpenInteract currently does not run under CGI -- it requires
mod_perl. I hope to change this in the relatively near future.
Hope this helps,
Chris
