[Server-devel] Testing EduBlog

[Tarun Pondicherry]

Hi Pablo,

The version downloadable from: 
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog_Instructions under the heading "For 
Those with Build 656" has the new homepage.  Please let me know if it works.

About, the lang settings, when you go to any of the pages it should be 
spanish (assuming your xo is using the spanish localization).  If that 
does not work, then I will force the setting to spanish and not try to 
detect the localization.

About multiple users, I was thinking that in a real school each teachers 
and students have their own account.  Then, they can do concurrent 
things without issues.  My concern is that for the test it looks like we 
are going to use the same user account for everyone which can cause 
problems.  If we can create separate user accounts for all the teachers 
and students testing, that would be ideal.

Thanks for taking the time to test this stuff out.
