Is there an admin manual for Mahara?  I am interested in installing it for a public K-12 school district, but would like to know more about the administration functions and possibilities.

Hi Sharon - sadly there's nothing yet, other than the help text available when clicking on the help icons - something that we do dearly want to fix! You can ask in these forums if you need help with anything in particular for now.

Thanks Nigel,

I wonder if it is possible to only have only controlled groups.  In working with younger students, it would be great to first introduce them to the software and eventually expand their permissions.  We use Moodle already and this would be an addition for ePortfolios.

Currently there's no limitation there. I see someone filed a feature request to prevent students creating groups however, so some other people are thinking about restrictions along these lines too.
