[Building Sakai] Roster in create new Site

[steve patil]

Thanks boss,it's really important information that you gave me. otherwise i
was using it as a scrap(although i am aware that  not a single line as a
scrap in sakai).

is there any front in for 'Student Information System' in sakai?

or I need to develop my own?


Thanks again,
Steve.
