I'll do my best to be there too.

Hi David,

Sorry, for some reason I missed your pull request when you first made it. This is a really nice addition - I've merged it in now.

Thanks!

Hi Mark,

Ideally we would like to get open badges into 2.5 and we plan on pushing it to integration review quite soon (we are just tidying up some loose ends). Whether that is possible or not depends on what issues or changes are required by HQ. The feature freeze, we have just found out, has moved forward by three weeks to 1st April which makes it a bit less likely now but we will try. If it doesn't make it in 2.5 obviously we would go for 2.6 instead.

Yes maintaining a moodle based on our github would be a problem, which is why I'd suggest treating the code as alpha (testing only) until we manage to get it into core. If you absolutely can't wait, probably the best approach would be to squash all the open badges commits into a single patch, then create a branch off the moodle repo and merge it into that. Of course you'd have to deal with any merge conflicts yourself but you would be able to control updates from upstream too.

If you use completion a lot you can make it enabled by default for new courses via Site Admin > Courses > Course Default Settings.

I think you also need to turn on course completion within the course (Course Admin > Edit Settings > Completion Tracking) before those options appear.
