The Islandora Project recently received a grant for ongoing development of the 
Islandora project and associated solution packs and community framework. As 
part of this multi-year effort we will be looking for collaborative 
opportunities with institutions using Islandora, as well as developers 
interested in doing contract work. Over the coming months we will be providing 
details on specific projects and development opportunities. More information 
about Islandora is available at http://islandora.ca/.

Our immediate requirement is for developers to work on a SCORM-compliant 
learning object repository. If you know of existing Drupal/Fedora 
collections/projects that work with SCORM objects, or have an interest in 
getting involved in the development of the solution, please drop me a line. I 
have included a high-level description of the project below. Some of the 
requirements below are provided in existing Islandora/Drupal modules, so we are 
looking for integration and development.

- Ingest module for SCORM objects that stores the original object and extracts 
components of the metadata for index/display.
- Ingest module for non-SCORM objects, including basic metadata creation and 
attachment to existing SCORM object.
- Threaded discussions, rating/voting system that can be tied to any object in 
the LOR.
- Searching, browsing and displaying of metadata and ability to download 
selected SCORM objects and associated items.
- Ability to launch the selected SCORM object with an external SCORM player/ 
RTE.
- RSS feeds on comments and new uploads.
- Defined group/roles with various permission levels.

Please also feel free to post thoughts/comments to the list.
