This plugin creates a news forum on course creation. This eliminates the requirement to have the latest news block installed in order to create the forum on versions of Moodle prior to 3.2. This issue is fully described in MDL-26707. You do not need this plugin if you are running Moodle 3.2 or higher.

I have code-reviewed your plugin and I think it's nice and simple.
I think it should be added to Moodle plugins repository as it is.
Thanks,
Tomek
