Having the teacher functionality potentially available where there is an XS
doesn't have to mean the activities won't work when there isn't one. I was
just checking to see the status.

My memory about Teachermate was there were people interested in working on
Teachermate teacher system but they wanted assurances that the Teachermate
activities were going to be released under a GPL or CC license and an idea
of how much content there was.  There were no answers on that.
