Statistics to gather

Inventory of technical issues outside Client and Server

How will students register with a teacher
How will teachers turn their laptop into servers
What are the constraints of the syncronization mechanism
Patch to Journal for sharing in SN

Questions for expert

Should students and teachers be clearly separated in the GUI?
Should teachers track what their students do within the Network?
Should teachers moderate what their students do within the Network?
What kind of users' statistics will be useful for educators/researchers?
