Hi David, hope everyone in Solomon Islands is well in this new year. The news of the earthquake have been rather worrying.
Now, about your question -- unfortunately we don't have a good control for this. You can experiment hiding the courses if you want, and ejabberd may (or may not) remove the presence info related to that course... and the XOs may or may not realize that ejabberd has removed that info. And then you need to remember to re-enable all at the end of the school day. This feature was not designed to be used like you describe, and so I don't think it will work at all. Instead, I will keep this use case in mind (and you should feel free to talk with the Sugar developers about it) in the context of "better presence / groups" interoperation, and the ability to mark a group as "current focus", so somehow members of that group are prioritized or highlighted in the presence view (without removing everyone else!). Sorry can't help more on this. m On Sun, Jan 3, 2010 at 7:11 AM, David Leeming <[email protected]> wrote: > Students in either class may be members of the Science club.
