Removing Embedded Libraries

phpmailer

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=429339

We can probably fix this by helping changing the way that phpmailer is used in moodle, See MDL-20701

tinymce

In Moodle 1.9 this is not being used (I dont think). In Moodle 2.0 this needs thinking about

libphp-adodb

Won't fix. Moodle customise it.

libphp-snoopy

Lookes like the changes are only in cosmetics. Can go.

libmarkdown-php

We can't fix this one, moodle uses markdown extra

nusoap

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=529573

Doesn't need to be used on debian since we have php5 and soap extension. Removing

php-simpletest

Need to investigate..

I believe there are a few Moodle-specific tweaks - look in the code:--Tim Hunt 19:10, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Just seems to be declaring the $CFG global:
