Hm, the tricky thing about this is deciding who gets permission to submit the page. Because submitting locks the page from editing, so there are some security implications to it. If multiple study-groups of students are using the same Mahara group to work on their collaborative pages, a student from one study-group could submit the page of a student from another study-group to troll them.
Or for that matter, a user might join an existing group that is for an entirely unrelated purpose, and then submit one of its pages. So I guess it would make the most sense if only a group's admin(s) can submit pages. Then a user study-group could create their own Mahara group, where they would be the group admin, and submit from that. But I imagine this would probably lead to a lot of user confusion about, "Why can't I submit my page?" Perhaps what would be needed instead, is the ability to make a group be a "member" of another group? And then if group A allows submissions, group B must be a member of group A in order for group pages from B to be submitted to A. Hm, but then that leads all the other nasty complications of inherited group membership, including potentially making page permissions even more complicated... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

I think there are two things to consider: 1. Submit a group page / collection to the group in which it was created, e.g. when the instructor is tutor / admin in each student group. 2. Submit a group page / collection to a different group. That way, student groups would have their own space and their work could not be changed by other students who are in the same group. Any other things to consider?
