[wp-hackers] WordPress Multisite Question

It would probably be easiest in the long term to turn example.com into multisite, and then move all of the subdomain sites to it. You'll want to back up fully beforehand, but the conversion process doesn't take too long:

If I set up two brand new sister sites, for example at http://cousin.example.com and http://brother.example.com , would it be ok if just those two sites are using the multi-site functionality of WordPress? Or do I need to convert my two existing sites over to MU functionality as well? Mike
