Moodle 2.0 changes
I've found a significant change (regression some might say) in the Moodle 2 database activity. I suggest we need to document, and perhaps link from the Moodle 2 release/ upgrade notes:
- In Moodle 1.9 etc. the comment form for the database activity used the full rich-editor. In Moodle 2, this was deliberately changed to a simple text-area (see related bug). This reduces the potential for structuring and formatting a comment. More seriously with the new files API, it prevents you from embedding an image or other multimedia (eg. audio) in a database comment - I think.
I think there is a wider issue - we as a community need to document all these gotchas and upgrade issues in the hidden corners of Moodle 2. --Nick Freear 16:00, 30 January 2011 (UTC).
