Re: 2 database, 1 models and controllers, many views

Assuming both sites are on the same server you could bootstrap your
controller and model paths so that you only need to maintain one
version of your logic:

for cake 1.2.x by using $controllerPaths and $modelPaths settings
for cake 1.3.x by using
App::build(array(
'models' => array('/full/path/to/models/', '/next/full/path/to/
models/'),
'controllers' => array('/full/path/to/controllers/', '/next/full/
path/to/controllers/')
));

You should probably also keep your cake core files in one location for
both sites by updating your CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH constant in webroot/
index.php see the advanced installation docs:
http://book.cakephp.org/view/915/Advanced-Installation

hope this helps
