[Sugar-devel] [FEATURE] Transfer to many

2011-11-15 Thread Simon Schampijer
Hi, I would like to propose the following Feature for inclusion into Sugar: Transfer to many [1]. At the moment it is only possible to transfer a Journal entry to another learner one by one. Teachers have asked that they would like to transfer a file to all the class for example easily

[Sugar-devel] Create new owner keys as RSA keys instead of DSA

2011-11-15 Thread Sascha Silbe
