[Building Sakai] Forms without portfolio

[mizematr at notes.udayton.edu]

It also depends on what you want to have happen when the form is 
submitted.  The Forms tool can run independently of the other OSP tools, 
but, as far as I know, a form cannot be configured to automatically send 
an email on completion.

Forms can be used like any other thing inside of the Resources tool.  So,
it's up to you what you do with them once they have been created.  Have
people create them in a Dropbox, perhaps?  That's likely the simplest
thing to do.
The original idea behind the OSP Matrix and Wizard tools was for them to
be guided collection mechanisms.  They certainly do this, but it could be
an overly complex solution for what you are trying to do.
