[Using Sakai] Group assignments behaviour when a student out of that group assignment drops the course

[Zhen Qian]

Mustansar,

Currently there is no real db delete done when the assignment  
submitter is no longer within the site...

So for

Q1: When the user drops a course but already made a submission, his  
submission won't be shown from the UI. And not counted for the "in/ 
new" (total submitted number / non-graded number). However, if the  
user ever becomes member of the site again in the future, with the  
same UUID as the user id, his submission will show up again, since  
the db record of the submission was not deleted.

Q2: Assignment tool does not support a "group work" scenario now. So  
if an assignment is marked as Group assignment, each member within  
the group would get his own copy of submission object, hence they are  
graded separately. Again, if the a submitter drops the course, his  
name won't be appear inside the submitter list, exactly like above.

Thanks,

- Zhen
