Agenda

Summary report of the recent MoodleMoot Working groups and hackfests (Dublin, Melbourne)

00:01:25 Michael de Raadt, David Mudrák, and Andrew Nicols

Hackfests presented as an opportunity for

  • Introduction to Moodle development procedures (how to submit patches, maintain a plugin etc)
  • Learning about APIs, patterns and tools
  • Open show-and-talk sessions on various topics and issues
  • Discussing outputs from working groups

Working group is an opportunity for the users community to be more involved in Moodle development. Folks are encouraged to join the WG even without being able to attend the MoodleMoot.

User disguises (previously anonymous forum)

Andrew Nicols

I've been looking at how we can implement MDL-1071 - Anonymous Forums for a while and have recently started to write-up my notes. I believe that this is a realisable goal and I briefly discussed it at the recent Australian Moot's hackfest.

My intention is to implement this at the context-level so that, in theory, any module, or block can support the feature. Some of the feedback that I received at the hackfest was that this should be renamed as Moodle can never really provide true anonymity - it is always possible in some way to determine a user identity (e.g. logs). As a result, I've suggested the name "User Disguises".

My working notes and summary of the issue (still a work in progress).
