Microsoft follows yesterday's GPLv2 submission to the Linux kernel with a GPLv2 release of a Moodle plugin (Microsoft Live), acknowledging the primacy of the Moodle CMS. This is a new team for education and they apparently wish to to adopt rapid development cycles and work with open source developers. The new site seems to be meant for engagement with educators and not product marketing; "incubation prototype projects". There is a Flash video, but it is apparently quite large and heavy, I couldn't view it on my aged Mac on broadband (YouTube works fine). Other videos are in Microsoft's proprietary format and MPEG-4. _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/marketing
