You can, but I don't think that's his intention... he wants to use the
same installation so he can compare and contrast functionality and
usability, test, etc.

// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each
a unique prefix
$table_prefix  = 'wp_';   // Only numbers, letters, and underscores
please!

Quoted direct from the config file. So yes you can. Just need to change
that value

Is there a way to configure Wordpress to run 2 different code bases off
the same db? Is it safe (particularly wrt schema diffs)?

Goal is that I can leave my 1.5 Wordpress up for public access, and work
with 2.0 svn/nightly myself for test & experiments.

Horde (www.horde.org) can do this pretty well, though I don't know if
it's officially supported.

Thanks,

Rod
