I'm currently working on porting the settings to XML and putting together the new index.php admin page. Please use the talk page to leave me any comments, I'll be checking it regularly.
This just in: no XML! The new format will be PHP/OO-based. New code to come soon. (Till then, take a look at the Reorg page, which still contains useful data.)
Key Project Tasks
(done) Design XML DTD(done) Design OO format for admin- (almost done -- 3 issues remaining) Design new admin block
- (in progress -- 75% complete) Reorganize and port Moodle admin settings to OO structure
- (almost done -- 3+ issues remaining) Code script for displaying and accepting input from new admin interface
- (almost done -- 2 issues remaining) Build a per-user bookmarking system for admin settings
(not yet started) Improve the user management interfaceProbably not necessary given the new roles structure? Main complaint was the separate links for creating admins, teachers, creators, etc.- (not yet started) Code the necessary PHP to highlight changed settings after an upgrade
Remaining Issues
- Include a custom $paramtype in admin_setting_configtext() settings?
- Double-check country on the languageandlocation settingpage... what's the default value?
- Find a good way to mark settings that are set on initial install.
- Update frontpage setting on frontpage settingpage (has to include "combo list").
