[Building Sakai] Add Users

[Longfei Yu]

Thanks a lot! 
Actually, we are using Blackboard 8 now, and going to switch to Sakai, or
Moodle, or Bb9 in the near future. We are just starting testing all these 3
tools, but found Sakai does not support the .csv upload, and it seems hard
to use the API. You have to have a very extensive programming skills to make
Sakai run perfectly.

Any thoughts about the advantage of Sakai based on your guys' development or
maintenance experience, like what kind of functions it lacks, and if it is
easy to develop new tools? If there are new stable version released, if it
is easy to merge your own tools with the new version?

Thanks.

Longfei

We can share the code, no problem, but this does not just add them to the
Sakai instance, it adds them to a single site.  

If that works for you, I can have our system programmer be in contact to
share the code.   Please respond to Peter who is cc'd here.

Great, I also need one to upload user information from .csv file to  
Sakai. I just added 200 users manually, sounds so stupid.

How can I get it?

Thanks.
