Hi Alan (et al),

Thinking ahead a little to the-release-that-is-currently-known-as-2.10 ;-) ,  we are going to probably need to regression test most of Sakai, including the Assignments tool. One place we can use help is in updating our Regression scripts to reflect new features which are being added.

https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/QA/Regression+Testing

If anyone is available to help with this, please let me know.

Cheers,
Neal

Essentially, this new functionality worked in two of the assignment submission types ("Inline only" and "Inline and Attachments") but was not working in the two other submission types ("Attachments only" and "Single uploaded file only").  We also noticed that after a professor submits a document on behalf of a student, it took the prof to a different view in the assignment list (not an intuitive location for a professor).
