[Sugar-devel] Write 60 possible bug saving shared work

[David Leeming]

We have 10 trainees plus myself. I will try and test as you say... I suspect
the critical number is one more than the number you tested before the
workshop and one less than the number of participants in the workshop! :) 

Sharing works as expected on simple mesh so I guess it is something to do
with the server.

What number of XOs are you involving? If you can spend some time
testing -- is there a critical point in the number of XOs?

I am investigating a similar-sounding issue with some activities
(Paint, Chat) where in mesh mode all works well if you have up to 6
XOs. From 7 onwards, the 7th gets a Keep error (and broken/empty
document afterwards). This is with XO-1 machines using mesh, so may
not be the same.

I haven't seen it happen myself (but I believe the reporters).
Puzzlingly the logs show nothing of note, so I am trying to reproduce
it myself and tweak things until I get *some* log that shows
*something*.

cheers,
