Posted by Joerg Winckler on
Hi,

The University of Heilbronn, Germany has launched a pilot for dotLRN since 9/2003. It is used by computer science departments for roughly 4 courses.

We need to have ironed out bugs in 1.0.1. We are disappointed that we run often into problems and have no possibility to patch our installation. We tried to find a stable branch in CVS but we failed (any help appreciated).

We would like to upgrade as soon as possible to 2.0 but there must be a stable branch in CVS (e.g. using the tag "dotlrn 2.0.0_01"...) which allows us to integrate proven, stable patches.

I don't know the new features of 2.0 but hope, that it includes

  • notification, when new documents (file storage) are available
  • start- and enddate of visibility of documents in the file storage
  • learning control tests (multiple choice, true/false, ...)
  • hierarchical homework folders

Best regards,

Prof. Dr. Jörg Winckler
