* MDL-51756 - [https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=323906#p1300779 From Dan Poltawski's memory]: Previously, it was incorrect for a web service parameter to be specified as VALUE_OPTIONAL, but to also have a default value given. In this case, the parameter should have been specified as VALUE_DEFAULT. Now there is a developer debug warning that tries to tell you this, but it is sufficiently cryptic that it will probably just confuse you, though it is not as cryptic as the previous errors you got in this case. If you had any Behat or Unit tests of you web service functions (well done!) then they will probably now fail, because any test that causes unespected developer debug output is considered a failure.
* MDL-51756 - Please can someone explain this. It leads to debugging messages relating to web services that don't make it clear how to fix ones code.
