[Building Sakai] In a particular site how to restrict students from sending messages

[José Mariano Luján]

Ok, i will then create the jira. Thanks!

Actually a colleage of mine developed a  contrib tool that allows sakai admins to easily update all realms with new permission changes. We use it almost every month!!

If anyone wants to take a look:

So maybe, its a better option to add a restrictive permission like "msg.no.sendmessages" so that people only have to check that permission if they want to restrict that functionality to an specific role.
