 Hi,

Can we modify the "add attachments" function so that users can only
attach copies from their resources, and not upload an extra file from the computer? if yes, when
the file is removed from the resources, how can we remove it also from the place where it was
attached to?

Meaning, if a professor attached a file that he already saved on the
Resources tool of that course to the Announcements Tool. if he erased the original one, the
attached one, will it be erased or it will stay on the Announcements tool.
If it will stay,
how can we erase automatically? if possible!

Why we are concerned about and may be
other institutions! This is because the quota limitation proposed by sakai, as far as I know, is
only limited to the resources tool. not the announcements, when the professors upload an
attachment to that announcement. same thing for the Schedule tool.

How can we limit the
attached files on the other tools other than the Resources Tool?

Is their a way so that
all files included/added in a course be counted and displayed by the "Check Quota"
option on the Resources tool?

When a student upload a file in the Drop Box, on which
space this file is counted, instructor or student?

How can we show them their quota
size, both instructor and student?

If we want to limit the "Add attachment"
function to only attach a copy of the files already put in the Resources tool, how can we do that?
what file should we modify before building Sakai?

Same question for the Assignment
Tool!
