Revision as of 17:18, 20 June 2012

This is edited highlights from 

   git log mod/quiz question lib/questionlib.php admin/qtypes.php admin/qbehaviours.php

(If you prefer, substitute gitk for git log in that.) Particularly significant changes have be put in bold, but this is somewhat arbitrary.

In several cases, the first commit purporting to add a feature was pretty broken, or minimal, and then more work was done to fix it up and make it actually work. In these cases, generally I have just picked out the first commit mentioning a particular feature.

The headings mark points in time, so the things between the Moodle 1.0 and Moodle 1.1 headings are features that are new in Moodle 1.1. The funny numbers after the date are the commit hashes. They are a link to that change on github.

The changes have been classified according to whether they are primarily P - pedagogic, A - administrative or T - technical.

At the moment, I was inconsistent with attributing credit for features. That is just sloppiness on my part, and hopefully I will fix it some day.--Tim Hunt 04:33, 12 April 2012 (WST)
