Development:OU discussion list
Introduction
In relation to MOODLE #DSU-719107, the Open University (UK) agreed to create a prioritised list of developments which we would like to discuss with Moodle HQ developers. Our aim is to seek agreement on a way forward for each of these developments and a decision on whether these can be coded by OU developers and integrated into core through the normal Moodle workflow, or whether they are best coded elsewhere.
