[Using Sakai] Administration use of Sakai: best practices?

[Feliz Gouveia]

Mike,
We at UFP do use a lot. Resources, Announcements, Schedule, and News Feeds
take the lead. We do not have any special precautions regarding security, we
use the same instance of Sakai. We often get requests to "enroll"
automatically "all students of a given course", "all instructors of a given
department", "all graduate students" in administrative sites. When such a
 request comes, we create a script to periodically add people satisfying
those constraints to the sites. Some sites have been running for years, so
that we can have hundreds of announcements. It has been working well.

Feliz
