Thanks, Robert, some good suggestions.

Extending the database module with new features will take some work, however, and might take a while (particularly now with a lot of other work happening).

The quality of the data in there is dependent on the information supplied. if you or anyone else wants to volunteer to have access to update/maintain that data, please let me know. Giving you write access to all records is trivial now with Roles.

Just a note: The maintainer is the developer responsible for final decisions on that module and for prioritising fixes and new features in the tracker (and that is probably the best record of maintainers that we have). It's assumed that there may be many developers contributing.

I'm planning to restructure the contrib area (cvs:/contrib) very soon (details at MDLSITE-78) in response to several suggestions made by Moodle developers.

I'd like to get it all done in one big breakage to get to a new structure so the organisation of this crucial code is going to be stable and predictable going forward.

We're also just creating a new "project" in the bug tracker for all those contrib modules, to help them manage feedback and bugs in an orderly way. http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB

Any comments, suggestions, things I've forgotten?

There's also auto-built packages at the bottom of the Moodle download page.

if you can't upgrade Moodle or move to another server, then install Moodle 1.5.4.

I've been talking a bit with the developer of little image editing package with a flash front end and perl backend ... it would be nice to make a php backend for it.

Dammit, I'm not on my main machine, and can't find the link just now. The name was definitely something to do with bee ... minibee maybe?
