Hi, In case you want to give a shot at trying Eucalyptus and haven't seen Braden's announcement (cf below) -- the instances of Open edX hosted on OpenCraft.Hosting[1] have all been upgraded last week. So if you want to give Eucalyptus a try, you can just visit your instance there if you have one, or apply for the betatest to get one.
So far the upgrade seem to have gone well, with very few issues reported - kudos to Ned and everyone involved in the release for the level of polish! (And if you notice anything wrong with your instance since the upgrade, don't hesitate to reach out.) -- Xavier @OpenCraft[2] ----- Original message ----- From: Braden MacDonald <bra...@opencraft.com> Subject: Announcing Eucalyptus Upgrade for OpenCraft.Hosting beta 🐨 Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2016 19:20:43 +0000 Announcing the upgrade of all OpenCraft.Hosting beta instances to the latest release of Open edX. View this email in your browser[3] The latest Open edX release is here! edX recently announced[4] the release of the latest and greatest version of Open edX, called Eucalyptus. The Eucalyptus release has a lot of great improvements, including many that were developed by OpenCraft. One of our contributions is greatly expanded support for hosting Open edX on OpenStack, the open infrastructure platform that we use for OpenCraft.Hosting. Our team at OpenCraft has been working hard to update all of our infrastructure to optimally support this new release, and we are pleased to announce that all of our OpenCraft.Hosting beta test Open edX instances have now been upgraded to the Eucalyptus release. If you are one of our beta testers, we invite you to login to your instance and explore the new features[5], such as self-paced courses, improved course navigation, and subsection prerequisites. As always, we love to hear from our beta testers. How do you like the Eucalyptus improvements? Have you run into any issues? What features would you like us to add to our hosting service? How is the site performance? You can let us know by simply replying to this email, or any email from us.
