Walter, I look forward to seeing your collaboration with Christofer. I had an opportunity to work with him a few months ago. I think he wanted to package my book as an Activity. I didn't grasp what he was trying to do and asked him for more information. Maybe the way I phrased the request scar

Just to explain a little better this all fits into the "cloud journal" Idea which in the very first version should basically work as a cloud storage device (which should be placed in the XS IMHO).

Hi Sridhar, I don't fully understand your scenario. You say an XS is not an option... but I thought you were using XS, with Jerry's help? If you are using XS, you can use Moodle. If there is no XS, then any webbased tool that offers a file upload form to post a file to share will work. You can

How can XOs copy files to/from their Journal with a server? We want the ability for teachers to easily make files available for children, and for children to upload to the server. It's not practical to install another server (so an XS is not an option). Most schools have a Windows-based server, so
