If you have access to an homogenous network of computers, this sounds
definitely like the right way to go. Christian: will this be the case
for you? Or will people be working on their own laptops like in our
typical Sage days?
Otherwise, the server approach works fine assuming:
- Not too many people (~10-20), or a well configured server to
support the load. We had trouble in Toronto with 30 people last
July. I haven't followed the flask notebook development; maybe it's
not an issue anymore.
- You don't plan for the participants to start editing the Sage
sources themselves.
Cheers,
Nicolas
