<p class=MsoNormal>We are all getting used to the new slick version 8.2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Please could I have advice on updating via the server. Some
of our deployment sites have Internet, some don’t, but most will have
servers. I apologise if some of the answers to my questions are on the wiki, we
looked but might have missed them.<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>With version 0.4, is it possible to load the new
updates (OS and activities) on the server so that the laptops can update to 8.2
from the server automatically or with prompting? (i.e. if there is no Internet
or Internet is too slow)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span
style='mso-list:Ignore'>(c)<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>Will updates from 8.2.0 onwards be supported by the
server?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are still having to go through all several hundred
laptops in a trial site with a set of flash drives to update them to 8.2. We
have to also update all the activities, as even in places where there is
Internet, it is too expensive and time consuming (slow access) to use the automatic
update facility on each laptop. (or tell me, if we try this using server version
0.4, maybe it is already be caching these updates? No?) <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> We are missing the ability to download a bundle of
activities. Now, we have to individually download each latest version of an
activity separately into the “bundles” folder. This is only a minor
inconvenience but each site has to do this without error.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Looking forwards to some news of how the XS will handle all
of this!<o:p></o:p></p>
