Hubert's exactly right here. We upgraded the license because GPL3 is better at protecting basic Freedom and because we could. We will never downgrade the license.
Software patents (and especially the US ones) are immoral and should not be getting mixed up in Moodle code. They just have potential to cause too much trouble for Moodle users. I will very happily live without code that is encumbered by such madness, and will not cry if if the legal parasites that feed on patents go out of business.
Bob, good luck with the project.
I suggest you get a web site going about your project to help people understand what you are doing.
And you might also consider later joining in with our annual Moodle Research Conference. http://research.moodle.net.
Hi all,
The code freeze for Moodle 2.4 will be October 22, which is approximately 6 weeks before the release.
This date is the last date that any new features will be able to be submitted for integration into 2.4 (although hopefully you'll have them submitted much sooner than that!)
This gives the integration team time to review/integrate any last features, and also allows the testing team plenty of time to conduct thorough QA before the release date in early December.
Cheers,
Martin
Hi Chris - did you realise that you can already publish single activities or a subset of your course, by simply selecting them during them backup phase?
You can safely trash everything in the course->modinfo field, it's a simple cache. Entries will be rebuilt on the first access to each course.
