Well, that’s cool.  That will address the problem then.

I’ve got courses.  Trying to figure out a nice of structuring them given the 
history of stuff around here vs how to take it forward.  I am thinking of a 
course folder, sections within it, along with one group representing the 
combined sections and then Instructor groups to go along with each section 
and the combined.  A few loader jobs and I can intermix but it’s orphan and 
Mgmt problem that I was tackling and I think your solution makes all my 
worries go away.   I presume I am not the first to address this and the Penn 
example makes my head explode.

Advice?

I am also really looking forward to your deprovisioning code.  I assume the 
above feature is also tied to 2.4?  Really looking forward to it.
