electronic submission --------------------- * do we want *ar* to be got working across Linux vs. FreeBSD, since tar needs such elaborate precautions? (show precautions business to Silvana; and indeed in principle to all TAs who maintain an electronic submission system.) * open-ended filename structure at submit/autotest-time? * what about submission of *directories*? Note that because of the ridiculous security holes in tar documented in the comments in receive_submission (i.e. the tricks with chains of "../" and/or symlinks), it's *not* just a matter of saying "let it all unpack if it's a directory"!
