If I install 3 different Fudforums for 3 different projects, I could share content by using the list/usenet gateway function.

The problem is, how to manage the user registration so that users can log in to all 3 forums ?

Help appreciated.

You can use FUDAPI to login users of 1 forum into the other two. Look at the forum_login.php script inside the scripts/ directory.

Will it be possible to mirror the registration across multiple Fudforum installations ?

For example,

Foo registers on Forum1
Foo's details are held in Forum1 database
Foo's details are mirrored across Forum2 database + Forum3 database
Foo may log in to Forum1, Forum2, and Forum3 using the same details

Please, is this possible ?

Yes it is, what you'd need modify the register.php.t script in such a way that when a user is registered or updates their profile the code uses FUDAPI to perform identical operation on the other two forums. FUDAPI provides functions for registering and updating user profiles, so it is not a difficult mod to make.
