Is there any kind of policy stated anywhere about using the public servers such as sagenb.org for class teaching? I think I would assume that if I were to use Sage for a class then it should be my responsibility (or my institution's) to provide the service, not to reply on the public server. Of course it's different if the use of sagenb,org is explicitly tagged as experimental for the class, with an assumption that if the class works well a local server will be set up as a longer-term solution.
