There's a whole world of culture and ideology behind what you said, Luke.
Yes, there is a need to consider
Following with the Printing support thread, I found out that the
only item that _needs_ printing in the conventional school setup is
the report cards.
Since I militantly believe that XO-supported education we should not
depend on printing at all if it were possible, I would want to submit a
evaluation from the shared instance. That instance would then, every
time they open it, simply be a viewer for that particular evaluation.
This is a good example where the master-slave (usually discouraged in
Sugar) would actually work.
