Maybe we should not only think in terms of purposes, but also in terms of causes: what makes children want to save files to USB stick? What I've seen is that children wants to save to a USB stick because they are told so by teachers, and teachers wants to save to a USB stick because they often lost files and are afraid of losing more... (I've not seen a school server in action, so I cannot discuss whether saving to a USB looks safer for teachers/children than saving to a USB stick.) -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
