I've just pushed out my last couple of days of work on Moodle. Have a play - it most things autoconfigured to work well with the XO. The workflow is simple -- this is a first step - proof-of-concept. - Once you register with the XS, Moodle knows about your user. - Moodle "login" asks you to pick your name from a list - *First* user to login gets a "limited admin" role called "course creator" - can create courses, assign roles, manage the frontpage. So this user can appoint fellow course creators -- all course creators are equal. The main feature here is that you can't break Moodle (the full admin role can!). - If you really want to login as admin, you have to get the password from /etc/moodle/adminpw and go to http://schoolserver/login/?showlogin=1 to get a real login form. Of course I want to get real automagic authentication, but that will entail hacking Browse a bit, and changes to the registration scheme. But that's for another release :-) cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
