Dear Martin en Tim, Thanks for your quick response.
In fact at this moment I'm a little bit confused. As far as I know Moodle will run offline on a Linux (school) server. So when you've this server it must be no problem to contact to this server with a client computer and have access to the Moodle installation on that server without any Internet access (but making use of your LAN settings, Local-Area-Network). But know it becomes interesting, what if your client computer is an XO with linux & sugar on it? Will it still be no problem to access your offline Moodle installation (at the school server)? I think it is a problem at this moment, Martin you wrote earlier that some serious programming must be done to let this work, am I right? I asked this question because I doubt if my earlier questions where clear enough. Tim, the content of OleNepal is meanly flash based. Reasons of using Moodle (wishlist) for OleNepal are: 1. Student Management 2. Discussion & Sharing 3. School calender with activities 4. Course planning 5. Automatic enrollment In general I think this a very interesting situation, because when we succeed to let Moodle offline work for (in combination with) XO's with sugar on it, we've a solution that might be interesting also for other OLPC related situations when it comes to the wish of using Moodle aswell. I'm an educational scientist and not really a technical guy, so I really appreciate all your advice or any suggestions so I can help OleNepal to write down a roadmap for the use of Moodle that make sense. I really look forward to your response. Thanks in advance.
