I am sorry, I sent this prematurely. Can I add some clarity
As I understand, OLPC is build on the principle of openness. When the
technology turns on itself and prevents the positive impacts, we must look
again at it.
We have some bona fide requirements to do what I am asking, in real life
situations attempting to build the capacity of national education
departments in my region, and we can't allow the technology to set the
agenda. It should rather enable what we need to do with the skill set/pool
that is available.
The server is nothing without content - and we have to make it easy to share
content (including uploading ad downloading without rigid contextual
frameworks)

List,
Is there a possibility of uploading to Site files in bulk (by administrators
aware of the risks)?
Thanks.

Hello Sameer
We need to do this in bulk. How do we copy/transfer files to the Site
Files in bulk. In our case, a workshop produced many files uploaded. It
is
not practicable to have to download it all individually. We also need to
be
able to upload to Moodle in bulk. In the meantime we continue to use
public
folders as a less attractive alternative outside of Moodle.

Hi David,
My understanding is that bulk upload is typically discouraged because
each upload needs to have at least one context (context of a course,
assignment, etc) whereas a bulk upload simply throws all files into a
folder. Having said that, here's what I found.
http://www.moodleblog.org/?p=178 Both the video and the comment on
this page points to the same caution of bulk upload. Maybe Martin can
point to something better?
cheers,
Sameer

Hello,
We're setting up a server in Kosrae, FSM. We want to retrieve site
files from moodle that were uploaded in a workshop. Can this be done
by using usb flash drives, etc.? We tried to search for them using the
find command but could not find them.
Thanks,
Joenson

The files uploaded via Moodle are usually visible under the Site Files
link. You should be able to download it from there. You may have to
transfer
the files from the journal to the USB stick. Drag and drop the file in the
Journal to the USB icon in the bottom panel in the Journal.
cheers,
Sameer
