Please add items to the agenda!

Moodle 1.9 and 2.0

• State of Moodle Development Address / Roadmap run-down (Martin)

Round table discussions

• Options for getting Moodle to communicate with external systems, including web services
• API's for portfolios, file managers and document repositories
• Further plug-ability and expandability e.g. new course format objects, redefining page display layer etc.

Participants will be sharing code and development ideas that have emerged in their organizations. A number of the core Moodle development team will be on hand to facilitate the round table discussions.

Gradebook interface improvements

• Overview of community feedback on 1.9 gradebook (Nicolas Connault)
• Run-down of current development
• Discussion of ideas for improvement, better defaults etc.

Other stuff

• Google Summer of Code 2008 (Helen)
• I (Tim Hunt, OU Moodle developer and Moodle quiz module maintainer) will be there. I don't have anything in particular that I want to say, but I am very happy to talk about anything anyone else wants to cover that I know about.
• It might be good to have a general discussion on general testing/QA issues. Eg. bug triage, encouraging more testing/QA contributors, the weekly review etc. --Dan Poltawski 13:14, 30 May 2008 (CDT)
