Aegir for Singe Sites
Hi,
Most of what I have read about Aegir seems to deal with maintaining many sites in a multisite installation. Is it also possible to manage multiple sites which are all single site installations? Is Aegir even an ideal solution for that scenario?
Thanks, Ryan

Aegir is not currently capable of installing in Drupal's 'default' site, if that's what you mean. But there's no requirement that you run more than one site per platform.

why not just install a site called "default" using that platform and create an alias for DNS?
I use Hosting Platform GIT to git pull into the platform
its pretty close to Acquia/Pantheon workflow using mainline Aegir 2.x
a bit of a hack, I admit, but it works (unless I am missing something?)
the file system then ends-up with a sites/default/files structure, which is standard?
Public file system path
sites/default/files
Private file system path
sites/default/private/files
Temporary directory
sites/default/private/temp
root@aegir:/var/aegir/platforms/drupal-7.x-drupalprojects-2/sites# ls -alh default
