Save the Date: Hack/Doc Fest at Hampshire College

Moodle Hack/Doc Fest for Summer 2011 will be held Monday, June 27 through Thursday, June 30, 2011 at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts. This will be CLAMP’s eighth Moodle Hack/Doc Fest.

We’ll be kicking things off on Monday, June 27 with our first-ever Documentation Sprint, in which we’ll focus on revising and publishing the documentation we’ve been working on for the last year. This is an optional event, but we hope folks will be able to join us.

Moodle Hack/Doc Fest itself runs Tuesday, June 28 and runs through Thursday, June 30, 2011. Additional information, and a registration form, will be available April 1, 2011 at the event web site: https://www.clamp-it.org/events/moodle-hackdoc-fest-summer-2011/

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.4 available for download

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.4 is available for download. This is a security release that backports fixes from Moodle 1.9.10 to Moodle 1.9.9. It supersedes the Moodle 1.9.9+LAEv1.1.1 and LAE v1.1.2 releases. It also incorporates a number of bug fixes and new features developed at Hack/Doc Fest VII at Furman University, and fixes a bug with TinyMCE 3.x that was introduced in LAE 1.1.2.

Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1

CLAMP is pleased to announce the release of Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1. This is a beta release meant for testing only; it is not recommended for use on production systems.

  • Code freeze was 5 p.m., Friday,  January 7, 2011
  • Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Beta 1 was released Tuesday, January 11, 2011
  • Moodle 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 Final Release is scheduled for Wednesday, January 19, 2011

This version of the LAE incorporates a number of bug fixes developed at Moodle Hack/Doc Fest at Furman University in January, 2011. We need help testing these fixes and verifying that they work for you. Feedback can be added as comments on this post or sent to Ken Newquist at newquisk@lafayette.edu.

The Development Committee will be meeting at 2 p.m. EST on Tuesday, January 17 to review any comments and give the go-ahead for the final release.

Note: We will be releasing a beta of Moodle 1.9.10+LAEv1.2 in late January which folds in the 1.9.10 upgrades from Moodle core. However, we recommend that people use the 1.9.9+LAE v1.1.2 release in their production Moodle instances (this release includes security fixes backported from Moodle 1.9.10) because we will not have had time to fully test the 1.9.10 code before the start of the spring semester.
